Ca va bien. On maintien notre site à jour pour la réception de nos courriels mais sans plus. Nous n'avons pas grands besoins de services web pour notre corporation, juste les courriels.

It was so so.
The sites were blocked and we were asked to remove files accusing us of using the hosting account for backup, which was not the case
