LuxSci has been a partner with easyDNS to provide DNS and domain registration services to its customers since 1999. Due to our sales volume, we have an “Enterprise DNS” portal that both LuxSci Support and its clients can access to manage their domains. LuxSci has stuck with easyDNS for all of these years due to their excellent support, the high quality of the DNS services, and the friendly and helpful attitude of easyDNS management. LuxSci also believes that by partnering with easyDNS, we are able to provide our clients with the best and most robust DNS services available. This is mission critical, because if your DNS is down, so is your business.

LuxSci has had many requests for a feature where account administrators can restrict users to a well-defined set of email recipients. This is very useful, for example, when setting up email for a specific purpose such as internal communications within a business or association, or in an educational or home setting to control where email is sent by minors.

Any time you register a domain name, you are required to provide valid contact information for the owner of the domain. This information is published and made publically available in the "WHOIS" database. Anyone can look there to see who owns the domain and to contact the domain owner if necessary.
Private Domain Registration, or WHOIS Masking, or contact privacy, is a service offered by some domain registrars where they will either (a) not publish the domain owner’s contact details, or will (b) publish "masked" details — i.e. details that point to anonymous names and addresses at the registrar.

One of our most requested features of late has been to support the "auto-completion" of email addresses when users are entering To, Cc, and Bcc addresses into email messages. While LuxSci has always had an address "picker" where users could choose addresses from their address books via a small pop-up window, that required a click to activate, some effort to search for the addresses, and then a click to close.
Users really wanted suggestions from their address books automatically presented to them, as happens in most modern email programs such as Outlook and Thunderbird, in a way that doesn’t require them to click or "do anything" and where selecting from the list could be as easy as pressing a single key.

Every organization is different in the way that it communicates internally and with its vendors and customers and in the kinds of information that it sends over the Internet. LuxSci has developed a simple free questionaire that will help us to assess your security and privacy needs and to provide recommendations to you as to the best ways to meet them.

The short answer is "no" … unless you need to support web browsers 8+ years old on computers that cannot be patched or upgraded and which are not in the USA or Canada.
