[TriLUG] Email Hosting Recommendations

[Roger W. Broseus via TriLUG]

Bick,

While it's not a VPS, I use Bluehost. I went thru three other providers until 
settling on them a few years ago. In addition to web hosting and email, they 
are Linux friendly and one can ssh into a Linux shell. Down-time is rare. I 
use their SMTP server for outgoing mail for that associated with my domain, 
bronord.com. I have multiple email addresses associated with bronord.com and 
some of them are auto-forwarded to the real people holding a given "title," 
e.g., something like "officer at bronord.com" is forwarded to the person holding 
that title at a given time. Irksome is they charge for anonymizing one's 
domain but I prefer that to provide some insulation.

Good luck.
