I've been shopping for new VM/Co-lo for our hobbyist/arts/small business server and RootBSD seems to fit the bill exactly with their pricing and options. Does anyone have experience how tight shipo they are running with regards to spamming etc? Of course, having Hetzner and OVH supply the spamming demand here in Europe, other providers might be spared altogether ;) >However, running a MTA (Or the entire mail/web) infrastructure is not an >easy endeavor.

Having newbs delve into >this world - past the SEO blogging wordpress spam, will just mean that... //rant Someone once said that real world is complicated and that makes email servers automatically complicated too. In many cases it seems that people automatically qualify as smtp and DNS admin once they can install some flavor of desktop linux on their personal machines. This is my personal pet peeve, people sending mail with headers telling that sender is xxx@myhosteddomain.whatever. You can't these days just forward messages with sender info kept intact, as modern spam and bounce prevention means that some random guy in internet can't sign the mails on our behalf... -Reko
