Same phone number for more than one account.

Same phone number for more than one account.

Hi there,
I am a webdeveloper specialising in providing websites, webhosting and email solutions for my customers.

I have signed up a number of my customers to Zoho Mail in the past, and a couple of these have grown into a paid package for Zoho CRM.

As I am then one setting up and managing their zoho email admin account I run into trouble when registering a new account as my mobile is number already registered towards another account.

I have now used up all my mobile phone accounts, my kids accounts, etc. and are therefore no longer able to add any more accounts.

I do understand that you probably introduced this "one mobile - one account" to stop spammers, but is there not any way for a legitimate customer of the free zoho accounts to setup a new zoho account without having to get another mobile number?

      Dear Zoho Mail users, Thanks to all of you for your continuous support.  We have recently started implementing the Inactive User Policy, for Zoho Mail.  A user is considered as inactive, if the user has not logged in to the Zoho mail account for a period of more than 120 days.

    • Add customer to account based on domain name.

      I generate reports based on a the account field, i.e. companyX.  In GoToAssist, my last provider, there was an option to automatically assign new ticket creators to a company (or account) based on their domain name. So for example, if a new employee creates a ticket from @companyx.com, for them to be automatically added to the companyx account would be a huge advantage.  As it stands right now, I have to remember to add them to the account manually.  Often I forget and when generating a report for
