Q. What happens if I go over my diskspace/bandwith?
A. If you go over your disk space, you will simply not be able to add any more files. If you go over your bandwidth your account will lock. If either of these happens to you, please contact us at support@ottawa-host.com. We do keep a close eye on your usage, and will probably let you know before you go over if we catch it.

Q. I can't seem to send/receive e-mail?
A. If you can't send e-mail using the mail.yourdomain.com server you have been provided, you will probably need to use your ISP's outgoing mail servers. Companies such as Rogers block outgoing mail from any servers other than their own. You will need to contact them to find out how to setup their outgoing mail servers for your domain.

Another cause of this problem is nameservers. You will need to go to the site where you registered your domain and change the 'nameservers' to ns1.ottawa-host.com and ns2.ottawa-host.com. Without this change your domain will not know that it is supposed to be pointing to our servers. Sometimes you will have to physcially contact the company where the domain is hosted to make that change.

Q. How will you bill me?
A.If paying via PayPal, your payment will come out automatically on the due date. If paying by cheque, cash, money order etc. an e-mail will be sent when your payment is due.
