Hi Steve,

>>Personally, I read your description 3 or 4 times and I can't really work
out
>>*what* they are offering when they talk about stacking.

The following is what stacking means (i have copy pasted it from the
original page. There is nothing more to it):

"Stacked Domains
A stacked domain is a domain that points to a directory within your main
domain. This can be useful if you do not need a completely new account for
another domain that you own.

The email system between the two domains will be shared. For example,
sending/receiving email on usr5 at your-stacked-domain.com is the same as
sending/receiving email on usr5 at your-main-domain.com.

The stacked domain will not be able to use autoresponders, email redirects,
or mail lists.

The stacked domain will not have any preinstalled scripts. "

I can do everything with e-mail forwarding and my main sites cgi scripts. So
visually there won't be any difference. In my eyes there is no difference in
what is explained above and what mydomain.com is offering, except that the
above costs $ and mydomain.com stealth re-direction is free.

Maybe a second pair of eyes can see something I have missed. So do u see
anything I have overlooked? So should I go for free or paid??

Await your reply.

Best Wishes,
Sunil.
