I have a question about hostgator. There is written that you get - Unlimited Autoresponders, Mail Forwards, Email Aliases, Mailing Lists.. Does that mean you don`t need any other AR such as aweber or what?


Tnx

    No.

    What Hostgator mean by unlimited autoresponders is
    that your can set-up ONE autoresponder message for
    each real e-mail address you set-up (if you want to).

    People use those kind of autoresponders to trigger
    messages when they're away on vacation, etc.

    They will not do a sequence of autoresponders like
    the ones AWeber and other providers offer.

    Dedicated to mutual success,

    But then, you can host your autoresponder script on their servers. That way, you may not need to use aweber or any other autoresponder service...

    If you're techie, you may like the liberty though. I'm not that techie so I'd rather pay some buck per month to get the job done.

      The downside here is you are on shared hosing most likely. If that's the case you need to be aware that if you have a spammer on your shared IP your mails could end up unjustly in people's spam folder.
