      <title><![CDATA[No longer accepting new clients]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our wonderful clients for the generous support they have shown over the years. As a result of our growth and our recurring clients' requests for additional site maintenance, we have been running well over capacity for some time now. In order to provide our existing clients with the level of service they have come to expect, we will not be taking on any new design clients.

We will remain open for hosting and maintenance of our existing clients, and have no plans to change that agreement.

Thank you all for the support and success.

Owner and Lead Designer]]></description>

      <title><![CDATA[Design in full swing]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[Summer is in full swing and so is our design business. Seems like our design clients come in cycles, requiring us to do some fancy time juggling to accomodate as many people as possible. We have recently finished Phase 1 of a major ongoing project with two more phases to be completed by November. We have 2 other clients with ongoing work being completed on their sites, and we have 2 more clients waiting in the wings for some work on 4 other websites. Every one of these clients are repeat customers who have come back to us for more work. It's a good feeling to know that your work is appreciated and valued, and we value our customers in return.

I would like to extend a sincere thanks to all our loyal customers for making this our busiest summer yet. Here's to many more to come.

      <title><![CDATA[Security Update]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[Due to a security issue we have identified with our last Webmail application, we have opted to remove the old Webmail from our server in order to protect our customers from potential problems. As a result of this sudden change, we have been forced to implement a new Webmail software very quicky so as to not disrupt our service further. Our new Webmail site is currently up and running at http://webmail.osatek.com . The update addresses the following issues:

- Login timeout window has been set to 30 minutes. This should help ensure that long email messages typed are not lost.
- Sent folder now properly shows sender information and subject.
- All new graphical interface with advanced navigation features (including drag and drop into folders! )
- Fully database driven for fast recovery in the event of a failure, and higher security

There are some unique features to the new webmail software that differ from most other Webmail software.
- After login, your mailbox will show your old email while it downloads the new mail in the background. Click on the inbox to get your new mail approximately 30 seconds after logging in (just like &quot;send and receive&quot; in Outlook)
- You can now drag and drop messages into your folders
- To open a new email message in full view, you must double click on the message in the list

We are very excited about this new software, and feel it is currently the best email solution for our customers. However, we have not had the time to extensively test this new software. Should you have any concerns about our new webmail, or if you would like to report a problem, please contact support at: support@osatek.com

      <title><![CDATA[Updated OsateK Webmail]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[OsateK Hosting and Design is pleased to announce that we have launched our new version of our OsateK Webmail. The update addresses the following issues:

- Security timeout window has been increased to 40 minutes. This should allow users to type longer emails without getting logged off.
- Sent folder is now behaving properly. There was an issue with email messages losing address and subject information, and the issue has been addressed in this version.
- Advanced HTML editor is now an option in the message composition page. You now have a full WYSIWYG graphic editor that shows your changes in realtime.
- Minor layout changes now make the webmail experience easier than ever.

As a result of the upgrade, current users of our webmail may have lost all items in their sent folder and address book. We appologize for the inconvenience, but we are confident that the new Webmail software will make up for it in may other respects.

If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact our support department at: support@osatek.com

Thanks,
Andy]]></description>

      <title><![CDATA[Plans all done, FAQ ready, more on the way!]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[Just another update to inform our customers of our current progress. All our hosting and reseller plans have been setup, and are available now by selecting the hosting and reseller options from the main menu (top of page). The header has also been slightly redesigned and a few other minor cosmetic changes have been made, including adding the &quot;Made on a Mac&quot; banner to help showcase us as a Mac friendly company.

Our new FAQ (frequently asked questions) page is all done and will be added to the support page soon. We should also have our portfolio and design services pages all done shortly. All in all, our server upgrade and redesign is going well. Our customers are pleased as they experienced no downtime, and our services have improved.

More updates in a few days as we continue to be Canada's BEST hosting company.

      <description><![CDATA[The programming and production of the new OsaTEK site is progressing very well! Our new billing and registration system is in place and appears to be working well. The overall site design is complete, and the main page is working well.
