I'm curious where you guys >host (godaddy?) and what server config your are utilizing (memory, >cpu, etc). I've been very happy with rimuhosting.com. For $20/month I get a VPS (Virtual Private Server - root access, etc.), 96MB memory, so far no problem with CPU overload, but it is shared with many other VPS users. Technical support is excellent on any problems related to hardware, or standard software, which for me includes Redhat Linux, Sendmail, SpamAssassin, Apache, etc. If you are concerned about 24/7 reliability, avoid the server in your basement. It will go down at the worst possible time. Also, you will never get connectivity as good as a well-located data center with high-speed lines to multiple backbone networks. I looked also at Yahoo and GoDaddy. Their technical support is inadequate for my needs. -- Dave ************************************************************ * * David MacQuigg, PhD email: macquigg at open-mail.org * * * President, Open-Mail dot org phone: USA 520-721-4583 * * * * Postmaster, Box67 dot com * * * * 9320 East Mikelyn Lane * * * * http://purl.net/macquigg Tucson, Arizona 85710 * ************************************************************ *
