Hi Rod, I am with Westnet as my ISP - same org as iinet I understand.
Westnet advised me a couple of months back too they are outsourcing the
email management. This was received with big groans. However, Westnet
(and iinet) are outsourcing the email management to The Messaging
Company. You have the choice to Opt In to their plan, in which case
they will manage the full migration of your Westnet (or iinet) Mail
accounts to The Messaging Company, but importantly you will keep
exactly the same email address afterwards. I have opted in as making a
change to a different email address would be a huge undertaking with
all the tangles with multiple other subscriptions, providers etc my
email address is associated with. Same to for the 4 other family
members in my family. I dug further into this - the first year of email
management is free with The Messaging Company and then from year 2,
they will charge a fee for the email management. If I look at my
Westnet plan, the current email management fee will disappear form day
1 after migration and thereafter. I don't know yet how much The
Messaging Company will charge from year 2.
You can ring the helpline for further details if other questions or
there is an FAQ page for the commonly asked questions.
Kind Regards
Peter Crisp
