Large Email Boxes + Cpanel
Jan 7, 2007
I ever seen a large mailbox be reliable, but now I have one that's mine and I have 8000 messages and 1.2gb. I can't even log into Horde webmail, if I use NeoMail its very slow, it takes 1 or 2 minutes to delete 100 messages or empty the trash. So I tried to setup the email account in Thunderbird and it times out. When I use POP3 thunderbird says it timed out but on the server I can still see the CPOP process for that user and it says it authenticating, if I try again to access it it says the mailbox lock is on, if I remove the lock same thing, no way to access it.
So any advise on how to access this large mailbox, perhaps there is a way to increase the timeouts?
Also whenever I try to do anything with the mailbox it increases the server load, from .20 or so it goes to 1, 2 even 3+

One of my customers asked me if is possible technically to offer free email services.
Since he's going to launch a big portal he want to offer such things later, for all users.
Now, there are problems as:
a) if there is any possibility to compress emails similar with GMAIL or YahooMail or so, because i can't imagine the email is uncompressed
b) how can be handled email boxes over multiple (mail ?) servers if the HDD space needed would be larger than for one server HDD ?

I would like to find a host with good quality & uptime that has large disk capacity for hosting IMAP email, about 10 to 20 gigs in size per domain.
I know of places like Bluehost and powweb but I'm not crazy about the 'overselling' issues related to them....
Any Ideas?

I have a customer who needs to move her existing hosting to another provider. The one thing she likes about the existing provider, however, is an allowance of Email attachments of 50-75MB in size. Most limit you to 10-20MB. Does anyone know of a hosting provider that would accomodate this?

my main client wants to rehash his database. Now this is a 1.5m strong list. All legitimately collected with time/IP stamp, privacy policy, etc. These clients are from the online gambling industry (legally licensed).
The problem is many of these users subscribed to our services up to 4 years ago (not all are that old, but some are), and they haven't heard from us for up to 2 years (again, some heard from us more recently).
Anyway, I've never deal with that number of emails and potential bounces. Obviously, the first round of emailing will have a large number of bounces, but that will quickly subside.
So, can you guys point me to a quality dedicated server, with at least 4 IPs (hopefully 10) and that can handle this type of activy? I'll be glad to sign up under an affiliate link if I can get a good answer.

to run a static files server w/lighty or otherwise - need VERY low spec hardware, but shared 100mbit port enough to push at least 10TB/mo each.
at most $200 per server if possible, celeron/p4, 512mb ram, 500GB+ HD, shared 100mbit.
us or eu is fine. (just no crap german "unmetered" with 10mbit throttle after 1tb)

I have a managed box with rackspace (green) On this I am running a couple of distance learning sites e.g howtofish.com (moodle on apache) and video streaming (lighttpd). This is all working fine.
I'm now looking at moving our "normal" website (drupal on apache) to a managed server with rackspace. (call this blue)
The 2 different parts will be running on 2 different machines, but I'd like to be able to move sites/applications between them if needs be due to load/work/failure
For example if the normal website server goes down, temporarily move that on to the distance learning/media server or vice versa.
Or if after a while we get more traffic on the distance learning server than the website, move the media server over to the normal website server.
Hope that makes sense - I'm not looking at a proper cluster here, but 2 servers I can juggle things between if needs be.
The way I'm thinking of doing it is having both machines with the same setup (apache port 80 and lighttpd port 81 for streaming)
And use Vhosts on both machines setup for all the sites.
i.e. green.flyfishing.com and blue.flyishing.com each have vhosts setup for flyfishing.com, howtofish.com and fishingvideo.com.
This way, whichever server the dns for flyfishing.com points to goes there, and the same for other services.
Then do a nightly backup of the mysql databases to the other server and keep files rsynced.
Then if a server goes down or I want to move x from green to blue I just load the backup of green database for the relevant application on the blue server and point the dns entry for the app to blue.

I currently run 16 boxes which I rent from various data centers, mark-up and resell. Conventional wisdom says that it's time for me to start colocating my own servers. I've got approval for capital (loan) so it's no problem for me to just buy these boxes and colo them. But... how the hell does anyone afford it?
I mean, I can get a cabinet in H.E. with 10Mbps burst to 100Mbps for $600/mo (through EGI). Which is an insanely good deal until you realize that it only includes 15amps of power. So (I think) that means that I can really only run about 15 or 20 Celerons at the most. So much for filling up the rack.
Optimistically, if I can run 20 Celerons which I've priced at about $700 each including shipping -- plus a switch, KVM, spare parts and bank interest over 24 months -- that's about $800/mo for the servers plus $600 for the cab, plus about $200/mo for remote hands in case I need the DC guys to do something. I'm looking at about $80/mo per server which I have to pay whether it's rented or not.
I can easily find celerons for $80/mo which include some level of support and I can very easily cancel whenever my client does and buy a fresh new one whenever I get a new client.
I was all excited to go colo -- but the numbers don't add up. What am I missing here? What's the big advantage to all the extra hassle of owning your own?

For VOIP traffic I am thinking of moving some servers from bay area to C4D.
I store all my server boxes so its easy to UPS them.
My question is if i wanted the servers to be shipped back from c4d in case of any reason in future do they keep the original boxes around to ship the servers back?

AMD Athlon54 X2 512Kx2 socket AM2 3800

Just completed installing the captioned OS with everything installed except GAME. This is an experiment. slamd64 is now running on the box.
I'm going to setup virtual mail boxes on this server, allowing my friends using the mail server sending and receiving mails. Please advise;
1) how to check whether sendmail is running and configured properly.
2) how to setup virtual mail boxes. Where can I find relevant tutorial.

I'm having a lengthy issue where my databases are to large to import in phpmyadmin using plesk. Unfortunately I dont have direct access to phpmyadmin and can only access it by DB user through plesk.
I have tried to edit php.ini in the following locations:
upload_max_filesize = changed this to 64M
post_max_size = changed this to 32M
maximum_execution_time = changed this to 300
maximum_input_time = changed this to 300
Why am I still not able to import my DB's which are about 8MB each?

I have a problem with the email accounts .. All of it doesnt work when i try to check them on microsoft outlook .. i'm using a whm/cpanel on a VPS from godaddy. When ever, i try to "Send & Receive" emails, i'll be prompted for the user and pass. Even when i've entered the correct one, i'll still be prompted again. I believe its one of the settings in my whm/cpanel as i have no problems with the other email accounts that i'm using from a different shared host.
