Site Navigation
Q: I can't find anything on this page.
A: I did my best and most people can find what they are looking for without a problem. In case you have trouble, here are some tips.
- Use the main menu. You can access all of the important parts of this page from there.
- Go to the Members area (accessible from the main menu) and look for links there
- If you are really stuck and can't find anything. Go to your profile and click on the "Capabilities" tab. You will see something like in the image below. Use links next to each capability to navigate around the site.
How to import DNS records?
Before you begin with the Main and MTA server install I suggest using my DNS export file. The price is only €20 and it's a confirmed time saver. You will get all the needed DNS records for your domain with just a few clicks. If you choose to do it manually follow the instructions in steps 1 and 2.
Import DNS records
- Go to Cloudflare and select the appropriate domain.
- Click "DNS" in the left menu
- Click "Import and Export"
- Select appropriate file
- Click Upload
You now have all necessary DNS records for your Main and MTA servers. During the guide completion, you will need to edit some. But the hard part is done.

Q: What do I need?
A: Before you begin you will need a dedicated server or VPS. At least 1 IP and 1 domain (the more the better). More specs are in my guide.
Q: How much does it cost?
A: You have two options. You can follow my short free guide or if you want a more detailed guide with better explanations you can follow my full guide.
Q: How long does it take after I place my order?
A: You will get instant access to my guide after your payment has been made.
Q: Is there a free trial?
A: No. Look at the free guide and first steps of the Full guide which are available to all.
Q: What about a money-back guarantee?
A: No. Since this is a digital product all sales are final and there are no refunds.
Q: What are the payment options?
A: You can pay with PayPal, Stripe or Bitcoin. In the checkout, step select the form of payment by clicking the desired tab (PayPal, Stripe, or Crypto). You will get instant access to the Bulk Email Guide as soon as I receive the payment. Usually, it takes seconds.
Q: What about support?
A: All members with proper capabilities can use the support system available in the Members dashboard.
Q: Do I need anything else?
A: No, after your server has been set up you can start importing your lists and start sending.
Q: Can you set up my server for me?
Yes, I can but it will cost you. Contact me for available dates.
Q: Why the recurring payment?
A: Users get access to the Full guide for 1 year. After that, they are charged an additional fee for each additional year. Before you are charged for any additional years you will get an email from me and Paypal reminding you about your recurring payments. You can cancel at any time and you will still have access to the Full guide for 1 year after the day you made the payment. My suggestion is to keep the recurring payment for now and before it ends check if there is any new guide, software, bonus, or extra you are interested in and go from there. In case you cancel your recurring payment and your account expires you will be charged the full price if you decide at a later time you need access to my guides again.
