    OK, so I have had it with godaddy. Can anyone recommend a web host ? We need a SQL Server database, ASP.NET 2.0, or 3.5 ( I don't think we care ), the ability to run HTTP Handlers on the host ( so probably IIS7 ), the ability to send email in code ( sounds odd, but GoDaddy has all sorts of restrictions ), and a mail server that we can also use in our program to send mail with attachments.

    http://www.discountasp.com I've been using them for about 4 years. Customer service is really good and I think they do everything you mentioned.

        Maybe they had a bad experience with The Planet?

              Not sure about the email, but Arvixe meets all your other requirements, starting at $5.00/month ($7.00 if you want dedicated IP). See here: http://www.arvixe.com/asp_net_web_hosting.

              Best wishes, Hans

                dont bloody go near Webhost4life - those pr***ks deleted a whack of our emails without warning a couple of weeks ago We lost months of email that they were unable to retrieve due to their F-up. They ran an undocumented mail purge - the ***)&*(&&*^&*(^&*( ers And no, we were nowhere near our allotted mailbox size limits :mad: Bryce

                damn.. :wtf: I'll have to keep an eye on that. So far I've just been pulling the pop3 and not leaving anything on their servers.

                      DiscountASP.com has some pretty good add-ons and plugins and they offer IIS7 with SQL 2008 - maybe a little pricy. HostMySite.com has similarly good package with options and their helpdesk support is absolutely killer - after hours e-mail support alone averages around 15-30 mins response time! happy hunting, whatever you do...dont host in south africa - they a hellish expensive(comparing price per MB of storage/bandwidth) and the one crowd has a bloke that friggin stutters on help desk/support!

                      No one knows the things of a man except the spirit of that man; likewise no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God whom we have received. He who is joined to the Lord, is ONE Spirit with him(Jesus) - 1Cor 2:10-16 & 6:17

                        I have been with www.JodoHost.com since 2004 and have been pretty happy with them. Good support and fairly flexible. I have been tempted to change because I did not want to use the EMS Sql Lite tool and when they upgrade databases (say 2000 to 2005) and you want to use the newer, you will have to create a new account (set everything up and then close the old one). On the other hand they communicate well about server upgrades/maintenance and the price is right for what I need. I don’t know about the HTTP handlers, I have never tried but I think you could if you do it in the web.config file.
