Mike, I am in the same situation as you, an ISP which would like to offer something like the Plus Mail system, which is a web based interface for doing redirects .htaccess and such. It does appear that h sphere fills all of our needs but I am concerned about their script overwriting all of my configurations? Does this mean that any changes made outside of the interface will be overwrote? Could you let me know what you think if you try it on a production box?
