now that I have a paid value account I can have 200 e-mail addresses, wel I wouldn't mind giving my girlfriend an email address but can she access it online without having to go thru my control panel ?

yes well she generally uses school computers so online access is best, my thats a long complicated address I suggest you guys think up a www.mail.freehostia.com or something

well I suppose I can set up a redirect page on my main site

create a sub domain

mail.simons-photography.com

and use this

index.php

Code:

<?php
header('location:https://cp.freehostia.com/webmail/html/login.php');
?>

Then tell your girlfriend the mail.simons-photography.com easier to remember.

yea was thinking something like that or a www.simons-photography/mail

make mail a folder with a index.html that is just a redirect page to the mail server

so do I just put that code in a file called index.php ?
the problem with a sub domain is that it does not work with www and that can get confusing I'd only really use a sub domain if I wanted to physically seperate different files like my forum

yeah just put that code into a file called index.php and it will work.

Well the folder idea is the same technique, create the folder add the index.php file
