    hi guys,

    I want to transfer my domain to another webserver, but during the domain name server is being processed, the emails will stop working for a period of downtime.

    Is there any way i can keep the email working during the downtime?

    thanks a lot.

    You need to set up email on new web server, for example in cPanel if you are using it, and that way you won't lose any emails.

    tenemail: your idea is a good idea, but which company i should go for the mail server? my webserver is hostgator, and i am not sure about the mail server.

    Pozer: i am not sure how to do that, you meant creating all new emails before transfer the domain? for example: if my domain is sample.com, all my emails are ***@sample.com, if i don't have the domain in my server, how do i create the emails?

    thanks for both of you, and i will be looking forward to hearing you back soon.
