Launching OnePoundEmail to Sell MXroute Email Hosting

Hey LES friends, I'm launching a new project and want to let you all know about it.
I'm launching OnePoundEmail.co.uk - As many of you know, I enjoy being in the hosting industry, using DirectAdmin and providing services and support to other people in the community. But as you may also know I sold my last hosting business a year ago because of my unhappiness in the industry at that time. I made a lot of mistakes in the past with my businesses and I learned a lot. I will be keeping OnePoundEmail simple, this is a sole-trader brand and not a company, and I don't have any intention to try and build a company at the moment nor to expand and try and build a global empire. My pricing is affordable but not too affordable that it takes the piss out of my provider. Some plans might be cheaper directly, some plans might be cheaper via me but ultimately I plan to provide added value to stand out in the crowd.
Have a look at the website here: https://onepoundemail.co.uk
The Basics:
- DirectAdmin based email hosting
- SMTP, IMAP and POP3 protocols
- Custom SpamAssassin ruleset
- Multiple premium webmail options
- Mobile apps for iOS/Android

Cool.
Sounds like a promising MXroute alternative.

Congratulations and good luck mate!
I really hope it stays that way. I wish you good luck!
It's possible that this is MXroute.
How to spot a MXroute reseller:
vps9hostname is available. affbrrDidn't MXroute move away from Hetzner (DE servers)?
The prices offered might be very slightly profitable by using MXroute reseller.

Mine's still on their Hetzner server.
MXroute is great - been using it for years (along with many other forum members as far as I know).
The only "downside" of the service is the tech. support.
They fix any problems, but (generally, officially) offer no hand-holding - you should know how to set everything up yourself.
If a company can offer good tech. support on top of the MXroute infrastructure - it's a good fit for most of the "non-tech." people I know. I'd recommend a thing like that.

Jarlandino may supply dedicated server in x location for whitelabel resellers. Just have money. This is definitely mxroute smell. Pungent.
Yes, I’m reselling mxroute. Handled by the pros so I can just do me. The intention is basically as @bikegremlin says. I’m paying standard pricing and there is some leeway for profit as mentioned above. As this isn’t a company there won’t be massive marketing or expansions and the costs will be kept simple. If they do a discounted reseller, I’ll hop on and lower my average cost but whereas the last time I sold mxroute I was solely profiting from BF deals, this time I’m happy to pay full price and mould my pricing based on that.

Hey, there's an issue with the DirectAdmin Portal. Already sent a ticket (to sales).
Thanks! Lessons learned and should be sorted.

Good luck, mate!

Yep same here, also Hetzner.

Yep, I can send and receive email(s) now. Thanks a lot!
In an ironic turn of events, my first action as a mod will be to edit my own post for breaking the $5/m email rule. Happy Wednesday!
Michael from DragonWebHost & OnePoundEmail
Didn't know there was a separate rule for email.
I hope sale goes well. MXroute with added support sounds like it should be a good fit for many.
Appreciate all the support. I just paid my accountancy fee so I'm here again to shill myself to you lovely folk.
As I planned before I have now added a new service for inbound migrations to OnePoundEmail. I have some double checks to do with the multitude of platforms people use so I have just listed DirectAdmin/cPanel as the source for now as I'm very confident with those panels.
Pricing is a difficult one so I'm starting simple at £1 per 100 emails (maybe 250?). I honestly don't know what's fair value at the moment so I will have to complete a few orders and see the time taken to further adjust pricing.

So did I, and my accountant asked me to go slow on idlers ;-)
Jokes apart, Charge what you think is best worth your time. The post by @jarland on OGF about the 12,000 domains was quite a revelation

Company called OnePoundEmail has a plan priced at TwoPoundsFifty.
Clear scam.
Burn it dooooown!!!!
Not only joking @MichaelCee glad to see you back in the hosting world in some form!
I'd forgotten about this. Are you planning these prices for a while or just as an introductory rate?
I'm hoping to keep this pricing structure for as long as I can. We're definitely good for the rest of 2022 on that front though.
Michael from DragonWebHost & OnePoundEmail
Will the name change when the pricing goes up?
I just bought a package ❤️
Twopoundandseventyfivepencepermonthemail.co.uk is a better name I agree! 😛
Just off to register that now
Just register all the domains up to a tenner, and he'll be forced to never change the prices!
Have ya never heard of shrinkflation?
