Dear Valued Customer,

You'll probably notice that this month's newsletter has undergone a bit of a facelift. We've redesigned in order to streamline the information we provide while giving you a more complete look at what's happening at Hostway and in the Web hosting world at large. We hope you like our new format and welcome your comments and feedback about what we can do to make the customer newsletter even more useful to you.

Enjoy and happy spring!

"Help!!! Now what do I do with all my spare time???

I implemented the free upgrade on my Gold Plus plan this week to Advanced Email Services along with CleanMail. This has stopped in excess of 100 emails per day that used to come to my Inbox as Spam or Virus infected. I am extremely impressed with the results.

Twiddling My Thumbs Now..."
