[thelist] Inexpensive E-Commerce

[Bev Corwin]

Hi....

There should be some system to catch the mail, we have a default mail
account, all lost mail goes there regardless.  Bounced mail would go back to
the person who issued it, so they would know it didn't go through.  PGP is
good.  We have our clients who use that type of cart / order email system to
log on SSH to the secure server and read their mail directly rather than
transferring it through email.   That way they don't have to worry about
packet loss, etc., or PGP not working, etc.

We like the online processing too... its not as expensive as you would think
really.  The way it is designed is very nice because the credit card info is
not stored anywhere... the only thing that is stored is the authorization
information.  It protects privacy and credit card info with the online
processing method.  I like it better than email,  but it does cost a little
bit more....... but still surprisingly affordable.

Sincerely,
Bev
