We have partnered with leading Internet company Google in order to provide our subscribers with up to 5 OmniGlobe-branded Gmail email accounts. These each come with 6GB of storage. Then the provider provides an email instructions .pdf which contains conflicting screenshots and text, in which the screenshots depict the subscriber using a gmail address and the text shows the subscriber using an omniglobe.ca email address. Maybe the .pdf is derived/created from gmail instructions by omniglobe. omniglobe.ca does not have an MX listed as such. If you contact omniglobe.ca on port 25 it answers as atlantic.sibername.com -- which is because omniglobe.ca DNS 209.44.98.50 which rDNS atlantic.sibername.com which is not a good configuration for a mailserver for a omniglobe.ca address. However, the same faq steers the omniglobe client to a webmail frontend at mail.omniglobe.ca which is a google page. So, I'm not crystal-clear on what google/gmail and omniglobe are doing for/with each other vis a vis omniglobe usernames. A normal free gmail account has about 7.5G of storage. -- Mike Easter
