Email and WebMail Features


open all sections | close all sections

Robust, Fast Interface

Using the AJAX technique for web-based programming, LuxSci's WebMail runs at speeds that were not previously possible with web-based email access. Enhanced loading speed allows LuxSci's WebMail to work with the same functionality of traditional clients such as Outlook, Thunderbird, and Apple Mail, but with the advantage of complete portability. LuxSci's interface is also highly customizable; using drag and drop features and a clean tabbed look, users can quickly and easily set up WebMail to look just how they like.

Secure Access From Anywhere

LuxSci's WebMail interface gives you secure access to your email from any computer with Internet access, and unless you specify otherwise, this will always be over a secure connection (SSL). WebMail is fully supported in both Internet Explorer and Firefox and works well with Opera and Safari. We also have an Xpress portal, which is a lightweight version of WebMail, ideal for accessing email using the browser in your mobile phone or for extra security/privacy.

Email Folder Tools

We provide you with online tools for creating, deleting, renaming, managing, and searching your email folders.

  • Supports any number of folders
  • Folders can contain messages and/or other folders
  • Folders are accessible via WebMail and IMAP
  • Remove Duplicates: Configure removal of duplicate messages in any folder based on message ID, subject, sender address, and size. Run the removal automatically on a nightly basis or manually at any time at the push of a button.
  • Auto-deletion: Configure auto-deletion of "old" messages in any folder to: 1. reduce the folder size to some fixed maximum, 2. reduce the number of messages in the folder to some fixed maximum, or 3. eliminate all messages older than some specified number of days.
  • Auto-Archival: Have your folder auto-archived; its messages can be moved to a new dated subfolder, when certain conditions are met. Archival can occur daily, weekly, monthly, every 2, 3, 4, or 6 months, yearly, or when the folder grows beyond a certain specified storage size or number of messages.
  • Offline Storage: Download your email folders as ZIP-compressed archive in UNIX- or EML-format for offline storage.
  • Create, rename, move, and delete folders and directories.
  • Concurrent Access: Multiple users using different email clients can access the same email folders concurrently without issue. It is easy to share access to your email.

Email Folder Sharing

LuxSci's WebMail suite allows you to share selected email folders with other users so that they can have read-only or read-write access to the messages therein. With this feature, you can access your email and the email of selected other people all from a single unified interface. You can even drag and drop messages between shared folders.

Email Message Tagging & Adding Keywords

Email tagging enables you to color code and label your email messages with multiple keywords of your choosing. This process helps you sort your messages into categories and to visually identify particular types of messages by color. Managing your email has never been so simple.

When multiple people are sharing the same email folders, tags enable you to categorize messages and/or assign them to people. LuxSci's tags are compatible with Mozilla Thunderbird and any other IMAP client that supports "IMAP Keywords" ... so you can see the tags via IMAP as well!

Annotating Email Messages

An annotation is extra information (a note) associated with a particular email message. LuxSci's WebMail enables you to add notes to any email message (even messages in shared folders) such that those notes are visible the next time you or anyone else looks at that message in WebMail, IMAP, or POP.

Annotations can be text or HTML, and they include the date and time the annotation was made as well as who made it. You can annotate a message any number of times.

Annotation is particularly useful in shared folders. In this kind of set up, adding notes or details to a shared email will ensure that others will see your important extras upon reading.

Signatures: Custom Reply-To/From

WebMail signatures allow you to add personality to your email! In addition to adding a signature to the end of your messages, you can customize the name and address they appear to be from. This is perfect if you have many different email addresses [not all of which are hosted at LuxSci] and need to send email (from a single WebMail application) that appears to come from any one of them.

  • Unique signature technology; similar to other services' "personalities".
  • Support for unlimited signatures.
  • Determine whom your email appears to be from (you specify the From address and name).
  • Determine to whom replies to your email will be sent (you specify the Reply-to address).
  • Specify the classical textual part (HTML also supported) of your signature that will be appended to the end of your messages.
  • If you reply to an email, WebMail will try to match the recipient address of the email to one of your signatures so that you automatically use the right signature for the right email -- no mistakes.

Of course, use of signatures for sending email forged with addresses that you do not have permission to use is a violation of our Acceptable Use Policy.

International Locale and Language Support

LuxSci's WebMail interface fully supports sending and receiving email messages in any language or languages:

  • View messages encoded in any language or languages
  • Compose messages in any language or languages
  • Configure default encodings to use when none are specified
  • Support for encoded content in subject and sender name areas
  • UTF-8 unicode is used throughout our site
  • Our user interface is translated into many different languages

LuxSci WebMail works very will with many languages such as: English, Spanish, French, German, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Swedish, Hebrew, Portugese, and many more.

Additionally, WebMail allows you to configure you:

  • Preferred time zone
  • Preferred date and time format
  • Week start day

Email Auto-Responders / Vacation Notices

Email auto-responders allow you to make pre-defined responses to email messages that you receive while you are away -- out of the office, on vacation, or otherwise unavailable.

  • Automatically reply to incoming email messages
  • Have different replies based on which of your email addresses or domains the message is addressed to.
  • Sign the replies with your signatures.
  • Specify the subject line and body or each reply.
  • Activate and deactivate the auto-responders manually or set a scheduled time window for activation and de-activation
  • Enable "nags" for letting you know your auto-responder is still enabled after a specified date.
  • Use HTML-formatted or text-formatted auto-responses.
  • Configurable time window during which senders will not get duplicate responses for multiple messages sent.

Email Forwarding and Email Aliases

An email alias is not an actual user, but rather a rule that indicates who should receive the email addressed to the email alias' email address. Individual users can also configure email forwarding for their inbound email.

  • Use Catch-all aliases to capture email to non-existent address at your domain
  • Redirect email to any address at your domain to one or multiple real local or remote email address(es)
  • Supports redirecting email to up to 25 different addresses at once. (More destination addresses are also possible with permission).
  • Unlimited aliases; change them whenever you wish via our secure online tools.
  • Domain Forwarding Catch All Aliases allow you to forward any address at one domain, "domain1.com", to the same user at a second domain, "domain2.com".
  • The Alias Manager has powerful search features that allow easy management and reporting on 1000s of aliases across 100s of domains.
  • Aliases can perform several different actions: forward email to one or more recipient addresses, send custom email bounce messages, and automatically delete all incoming email.

Import POP Email from Other Accounts

If you have other email accounts and you can access them via POP, then this tool allows you to download messages from these remote accounts to your LuxSci email folders.

  • Store information for an unlimited number of remote POP email accounts
  • Download mail from each account to an any email folder
  • Have your email downloaded automatically every 20 minutes
  • Have the messages downloaded and then forwarded to your LuxSci account so that the messages pass through all of your inbound email, anti-Spam, and anti-Virus filters, including Email Defense. The result is similar to having your email forwarded from your other accounts to your LuxSci account. This is a good solution when you remote account doesn't permit email forwarding but you want to download and filter its messages.
  • Delete or leave the remote email on the remote server (when downloading manually; the automatic hourly downloaded always deletes downloaded messages from the server).
  • Optionally preview messages before downloading: select what to download or delete
  • Download email from one remote account at a time or from ALL remote accounts at once!
  • Supports secure POP (SSL) connections to remote POP servers.
  • Combined with "Signatures" this is the perfect way to manage multiple email accounts!
  • Fully supports previewing email messages that contain text in any language.
