I think it is cheaper to spend $100 a month to let someone else run the email server than for me to take on all those headaches.  I started down that path and found it was going to take a lot of on going effort.   I's not the cost of the server, it is the cost of time. ------------------------ Keith Smith --- On Fri, 6/17/11, Dan Lund wrote: From: Dan Lund Subject: Re: Rackspace email & DNS To: "Main PLUG discussion list" Date: Friday, June 17, 2011, 5:36 PM You get to that amount, and it's on the border of creating your own mail server. It's not terribly hard, it just takes security planning. --Dan Lund On Fri, Jun 17, 2011 at 9:35 AM, keith smith wrote: I looked at google and they are $5/mo or $50/yr per box.  I need about 50 mailboxes.  That turns out to be $1,800 more a year.  Rackspace has 10g mailboxes and Google has 25g mailboxes.  I'm guessing all else is equal.  We just need plain old mail.  Nothing fancy.
