My emails are not being received by any Microsoft email addresses

A business client of iTandCoffee, who used Google Workspace for their emails, had the serious problem that all recipients of their emails who used Microsoft email addresses were not receiving their emails. Emails were being received by everyone else.

Here is the advice that was given to that client, which I hope might prove helpful to other businesses suffering this issue. If you need help with any of the below, contact iTandCoffee. We offer support and training for small businesses and individuals, covering the most basic to more complex technology issues and questions.

Apple can host your custom business email address - and it might cost you nothing

Just this week, a client asked me for a recommendation about what to do about setting up a custom email address for a domain name he has registered.

For example, I own the domain name itandcoffee.com.au, so can set up email addresses that have the suffix @itandcoffee.com.au (e.g lynette@itandcoffee.com.au, enquiry@itandcoffee.com.au, etc.).

But to do this, I must choose who hosts my emails and how 'fancy' the email account needs to be.

Some domain hosts will offer simple email accounts for very low cost - but these email accounts will not be able to hold contacts, calendars, tasks and other data that more advanced mail hosts can offer. And there are often strict limit on how much storage that mail account is allowed.

iTandCoffee's email is hosted by Microsoft, as Exchange email accounts. I could also have chosen Google Workspace as the host for my mail. Both of these come at a cost.

But there is another solution that can cost you nothing - and that is iCloud-hosted custom email.

How iTandCoffee made a client cry

Client Judy Sellwood has recently created the online Christmas decorations business Purely Christmas, launching her business late last year.

So, what was it that brought Judy to tears during last week's appointment with iTandCoffee - tears for which I take full responsibility?

Judy was faced with the daunting task of doing her first post-Christmas stocktake - and needed to update a spreadsheet that listed all her stock.

She also really needed to take pictures of all her stock of Christmas decorations and somehow link those images to the data in the spreadsheet.

This was all falling in to the 'too hard' basket - especially when she was not very experienced at using a spreadsheet.

A handy app for tracking your KM's for business

If, like me, you operate a business in which you clock up quite a few business km's, it is important to be able to track those kms's - so that you can claim them from your business or through your tax return. With a reimbursement of .68c/km, it is well worth ensuring that you keep a log of these k's.

Maintaining a manual log book, however, is an absolute pain. But there is an easier way!

As with so many things, there is an app for that.
