• you have a website at www.myisp.com/users/~myhome/index.html

• you forward mydomain.ca to www.myisp.com/users/~myhome/index.html

• when someone types www.mydomain.ca into the address bar of their Internet browser, they get redirected to www.myisp.com/users/~myhome/index.html (i.e. they see the content of the website) but they see "http://www.mydomain.ca" in their browser's address bar

Email Forwarding is an extremely powerful tool that allows you to create an unlimited number of email addresses (aliases) for a registered domain name and have them redirected to a working email address. Using your own easy to remember domain name, Email Forwarding is the perfect way to mask a generic ISP email address or a long, cumbersome address.

• Multiple "aliases" may be set up (e.g. president@yourdomain.ca, info@yourdomain.ca, sales@yourdomain.ca) which you can then forward to any working email address (a great way for small businesses to mimic a larger corporation)

• There is no limit to the number of aliases you create

• You can channel all aliases to one existing email address or channel each alias to a distinct email address

• You may also choose the "All Aliases" option that automatically forwards anything@yourdomain.ca to one email address.

All you need is:

• a working email address for the email aliases to channel to (can be through a free email service such as hotmail.com as long as it works)

• a registered domain name that is not already hosted by another internet service provider

Please note that Email Forwarding does NOT provide you with an email account or mailbox with which you can store email or send email. Email Forwarding is not suitable for customers who have specified their own Domain Name Server (DNS) information for their domain name (i.e. the domain name is already hosted by an Internet Service Provider and has an active website).

Applications:

Email Forwarding is especially powerful for families and small businesses Here's how.

Families

• Register your surname/family name with CRSI.CA

• Create an alias email address firstname@surname.ca for yourself or for all members of your family and specify to what working email address you want each alias email address to be forwarded to

• If your working email account changes, you simply need to change the forwarding details without ever having to inform your contacts that your email address has changed!

Small Businesses and Home Businesses

• Register your business name with CRSI.CA

• Create email addresses (aliases) info@yourdomain.ca or sales@yourdomain.ca and specify to what working email address you want each alias email address to be forwarded to

• If your working email account changes, you simply need to change the forwarding details without ever having to inform your contacts that your email address has changed!

ALL ALIASES OPTION

This will forward any possible email @yourdomain.ca to the email that you specify. Therefore, if someone types webmaster@yourcompany.ca or mistypes suport@yourcompany.ca or inf@yourcompany.ca, the email will still go to your working email address:

Domain Parking is useful for those who have registered their .ca domain name, but do not yet have a website built. Domain Parking presents visitors to your domain name a page that contains 255 characters of text that you provide, for example your contact information. Pictures however, may not be used. It is also important that it be known that CRSI does not provide this service "in-house" and that the 3rd party provide of this service, "eNom INC" may also display their own advertising on this page, which CRSI has no control over.

For most low bandwidth applications (e.g. a personal website), yes, these services work very well. However, businesses and other applications where email is mission critical should not choose this service. This is because there are no service guarantees associated with this service, as they are provided through a 3rd party, not crsi.ca.
