Not really... The bigmailbox service is run entirely on their servers, not yours. The only thing that would use bandwidth is if you use a link to your logo or something else on your site when you configure the bigmailbox setup.

Actually I've never used it on a site of mine other than "playing around". Its been a while, but I'm pretty sure its just a matter of filling in the blanks on their set-up screens to get everything the way you want it.

Theres really no programming involved since they are running everything and you're just providing a link to their site.

Good luck!

:nuts: Woo-hoo!!!! With this post I'm now a WHT Addict!!! Of course I'm not sure if that's really good news or not!

Don't forget that you will need to email your web host, and tell them to update the MX records of your domain name. :)
