			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>London &#8211; 16 May 2012 &#8211; Host Europe Group, the largest privately owned hosting group in Europe (offering leading domains, web hosting, cloud hosting and managed hosting products and services) has today announced the acquisition of Mesh Digital. The strategic move, which sees Host Europe significantly strengthening its domain management portfolio and platform, is a natural progression for the two businesses which have been working closely together for several years.</p>
<p>Mesh Digital &#8211; trading as Domainmonster.com and Domainbox.com &#8211; has for some time been providing back-end domain registration and value-added services for the Host Europe Group. With an excellent reputation in the sector and a clear focus on the domain name industry, Mesh Digital was the perfect brand fit for Host Europe Group as it expands internationally. The acquisition affords Host Europe Group ownership of Domainbox.com, the innovative reseller platform developed by Mesh Digital. Domainbox.com is the most modern domain platform available in the market today, and supports more than 100 top level domains, whilst processing in excess of one million API (application programming interface) calls a day. Host Europe Group will be in the unique position of being able to centralise its domain operations, benefiting from fast integrations with a vast network of Domain Registries and value add suppliers that Domainbox already supports. At the same time, Mesh Digital customers will now have access to a larger selection of competitive products and services including VPS, dedicated servers and advanced email solutions.</p>
<p>Matt Mansell, Founder and Chief Executive of Mesh Digital, will take on the role as ‘Head of Domain Strategy’ within the Host Europe Group, and he, along with his team, will be responsible for managing the Groups’ domain portfolio and strategy, whilst continuing the innovation of the Domainbox.com product. </p>
<p>Thomas Vollrath, CEO of the Host Europe Group, said: “We have worked closely with the Mesh Digital team for some time now and the two companies’ share a similar vision, passion and commitment to our customers. We took the strategic decision to acquire Mesh because the company is very well respected in the industry, and is renowned for its cutting-edge innovation. What’s more, being able to offer platforms such as Domainbox.com across our group puts us in an increasingly competitive position, and means we can offer a far greater range of products to our customers. Our combined businesses are a natural fit, providing complementary products and services that help to strengthen the buying power for Host Europe Group overall.”</p>
<p>Matt Mansell, continued; “The fit here is nothing short of perfect. Host Europe Group is an established customer of ours on our Domainbox.com wholesale product and I see enormous potential for us both as a combined business. </p>
<p>“Both parties bring with them a vast and fresh base of technology that is unique within our industry. It’s an extremely exciting time to be within the domain industry right now and with a group domain portfolio that will exceed five million domains under management, we can carve a clear and decisive strategy for our brands that will allow us to keep innovating above the bar for our collective customers.”</p>
<p><strong>About Host Europe Group </strong><br />
Founded in 1997, the Host Europe Group is the largest privately-owned hosting group in Europe. It manages in excess of 5 million domains, and offers more than 1 million customers mass, customised, managed and cloud web hosting alongside multiple cloud based software applications.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Köln, 10. Mai 2012 – Host Europe bietet seinen Kunden ab sofort die Möglichkeit, ihre E-Mails von anderen Mail-Accounts schnell und einfach zu Host Europe umzuziehen.</strong>  </p>
<p>Immer mehr Selbstständige und Kleinunternehmen präsentieren sich mit eigenem Domainnamen und Firmen-Website im Internet. Dies ist der ideale Zeitpunkt, um auch für die E-Mail-Kommunikation auf Konten zu wechseln, die den eigenen Domain-Namen beinhalten. Dieser Wechsel war bisher gerade für kleine Firmen oder eigene IT-Abteilungen nur schwer zu bewältigen, da die Übertragung der existierenden Daten zum neuen Anbieter komplex und zeitaufwendig ist. </p>
<p>Mit dem neuen E-Mail-Umzugsservice powered by audriga ist der Anbieterwechsel mit wenigen Klicks möglich. Die Kunden behalten den Zugriff auf die empfangenen und versendeten E-Mails ihrer bislang genutzten Accounts. Dies ist vor allem für Unternehmer relevant, da sie gesetzlich verpflichtet sind, Dokumente mit Belegfunktion wie etwa Handelsbriefe oder Geschäftspapiere, für sechs Jahre aufzubewahren. Für Unterlagen der Buchhaltung gilt sogar eine Frist von zehn Jahren. </p>
<p>„Viele unserer Businesskunden haben schon seit langem den Wunsch, ihre aus historischen Gründen bestehenden Freemail-Postfächer zu der professionellen Host Europe E-Mail-Lösung umzuziehen. Mit dem innovativen Tool von audriga gelingt dies nun schnell, einfach und sicher. Außerdem erlaubt uns das Tool, unsere Neukunden bei ihrem Hostingprovider-Wechsel zu unterstützen,“ betont Markus Dietrich, Head of Business Unit Webhosting bei Host Europe. </p>
<p>Host Europe ist der erste große Hostingprovider in Deutschland, der seinen Kunden den E-Mail-Umzugsservice von audriga anbietet. Der Umzugsservice unterstützt als Datenquelle alle E-Mail-Provider, die die Protokolle IMAP oder POP3 verwenden. Für die Anbieter 1&#038;1, Strato, GMX und Web.de werden überdies Vorlagen mit voreingestellten Standardangaben angeboten, die den Umzug vereinfachen. Beim Umzug werden alle Ordner und E-Mails in dem Zustand in das Zielkonto kopiert, wie sie im Quellkonto beim Start des Umzugs vorliegen. Dabei werden sämtliche providerunabhängigen Eigenschaften, wie der Status einer E-Mail (gelesen/ungelesen) übernommen. Alle Mails werden beim Umzug mit SSL verschlüsselt und somit sicher übertragen. </p>
<p><strong>Preise und Verfügbarkeit</strong><br />
Neukunden, die sich für ein Hosting-Produkt bei Host Europe (WebPack, Virtual Server Managed, Dedicated Server Managed, WebBuilder, E-Shop) entscheiden, erhalten einen Gutschein für den kostenlosen Umzug einer Mailbox, den sie innerhalb von 30 Tagen einlösen können. Der Umzugsservice für jede weitere Mailbox kostet 9,99 EUR und steht auch Bestandskunden zur Verfügung. Weitere ausführliche Informationen finden Sie unter: </p>
