What's New

We are pleased to announce that server monitoring is now available for beta users.

This feature is being rolled out under the DNS-plus service level and will be included as a component of that package. Server monitoring allows members to setup service tests on their hostname (A) records and our system will check those services and send out an alert if the service is found to be down or unresponsive.

For more information on this please see:

During the beta period users need to have the "beta flag" set on their accounts. To have this flag set, please contact support.

We have promoted SPF checking on inbound mail forwarding from beta to normal production. All members can now optionally enable SPF checking on inbound mail destined for their domains via the "email" settings in their domain options.

If the SPF validation equates to hardfail for a domain with SPF validation enabled, our mail servers will reject the inbound message, all other outcomes will be prepended into an additional SPF-Received: header in the message and processed normally. Members can then add additional filters keying on this header in their mail clients or downstream MTAs.

For more details on SPF and how it works, please see easySPF.com

The .mobi top-level-domain goes into realtime live registrations today.

That means you can now register .mobi names like any other TLD. If you own joesgarage.com or joesgarage.ca you can probably grab your .mobi starting today.

One other thing: the .mobi registry is forcing minimum 2-year initial registration periods.
