*📜 Plan description
Personal Email is the entry professional mailbox designed to brand your communications without paying for a full hosting plan. Each account includes 2 GB mailbox storage, supports POP/IMAP with a strong recommendation for IMAP so your messages sync across desktop, mobile apps and webmail, and allows attachments up to about 10 MB per message. You can add up to 100 mailboxes under one domain, organize contacts in the built-in address book, and rely on inbound spam and antivirus filtering. Setup is straightforward: point your domain’s MX records or purchase a new domain in the same account, then create addresses like hello @ yourbrand.com and log in from Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird or the webmail client. A short SMTP ramp-up applies to new senders to curb abuse: very low send limits in week one increase to thousands of messages per day as the account warms.
Common email platform details: WestHost positions email as a business-critical channel with 24x7 support on chat and tickets, phone during business hours for sales/billing, and a 30-day money-back guarantee on eligible services. Webmail is accessible everywhere and pairs with mobile apps via IMAP/SMTP; anti-spam and multi-stage malware protection are always on. Storage tiers scale by plan (Personal vs Professional), and you can upgrade seamlessly when you near quota. Documentation covers best practices (choosing aliases, using CC/BCC, rules, spam controls), and the service is backed by the same hosting infrastructure used for their shared/web builder offerings.

📄 Editorial Review
WestHost (founded in 1998 by Chris Russell, which is still the CEO), is a long-running hosting brand within THG Ingenuity (formerly UK2 Group acquisition in 2008). They position themselves as a straightforward provider of secure, cost-effective web services with a focus on entry-level and SMB use cases.The current catalog centers on shared web hosting, email hosting, WordPress hosting, domain registration, a website builder and a paid security clean-up service.
Shared hosting highlights include a free domain, free mailboxes, and free wildcard SSL; higher tiers advertise unlimited disk space, unlimited MySQL databases, and unlimited websites. WordPress plans layer a guided installer and the broader plugin/theme ecosystem on top of the same infrastructure. The website builder line targets non-technical users with bundled domain, email, page limits by tier, and eCommerce features at the top end.
Email hosting remains a clear emphasis, offered in two tiers (Personal and Professional) with POP/IMAP, mobile sync, webmail, spam/virus protection, and optional mailbox storage upgrades. Domains are actively marketed with aggressive first-year promos and useful extras like DNS control, email forwarding, and a free one-page site.
Historically they described VPS options (SSD, multiple Linux/FreeBSD choices), but those services—along with dedicated/bare metal—have been folded into THG’s broader Ingenuity Cloud Services. Public activity on the WestHost brand has slowed (e.g., older blog/social timelines), suggesting the brand now primarily maintains core shared, email, WordPress, domains, and builder offerings.
