Mike,

Did you look at coldfusion-mx-hosting?
They offer CFMX 7, unlimited pop/webmail,
Plans include 10 or more domains for a single
Plan and can be increased.

Thanks for your suggestion, Casey.  I looked at their plans and they dont
offer CFMX7.  (Their site is working though, which is more than i can say
for MY site right now!)

We have quite a few sites using CFMX7 features so that's a minimum
requirement these days.

While I dont want to discuss my hosting selection process too much because
it's off topic and not in my commercial interests to do so, but I think
hosting companies who want to encourage resellers should adopt a pricing
strategy that allows them to do business on a rational basis.

For example.   If the plans you offer, have say 10 pop3 accounts,   i get
penalised if i have one site with 15xPop3 accounts, incurring extra charges
(the nickel and dime attitude) while i might well have 15 sites with only
2xPop3 accounts, using nowhere near their allocation.

I have to take this kind of thing into account when deciding whether the
hosting company really understands resellers or just give  a discount off
their normal plans and dont understand how resellers work.
