Did you know

Facebook was originally named TheFaceBook and, developed by Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg, was limited only to Harvard students. Now it is one of the most-trafficked websites in the world. The FaceBook website is built on PHP-MySQL technology, the same technology that underpins all Toucan Internets advanced websites, and it is probably the most popular PHP website ever built. FaceBook has more than 24 million photos uploaded daily.

What we provide :: Email :: MX Backup

For clients using SMTP delivery to their server Toucan offer a supporting service called MX Backup. Should your own server, such as your local MS Exchange server, go off line for any reason your incoming mail would be permanently bounced. The MX Backup service will back up this mail to a remote server. This backup server will then retry delivery to your mail server to a fixed schedule, of 40 attempts over 7 days. After that
time the mail message is rejected.

Each message has its own retry schedule. The longer a message remains undeliverable, the less frequently the
system tries to send it. The retry schedule is not configurable.

We will attempt to deliver mail for up to 7 days while your server is unavailable. After 7 days of failed retry attempts, we will return the message to the sender.

The following table shows the retry schedule for a message that's undeliverable to a remote recipient until it bounces.
