Recommendation For An MS Exchange Admin Who Knows How To Set Up Spam Filtering
Aug 4, 2008
We have a customer who has their own in-house Exchange server. The problem (don't ge me started!) is that they get a LOT of spam.
We've been looking for some kind of hosted barracuda service, but can't seem to find anything reasonably priced.
So... I'm thinking that maybe for a one-time setup fee we can help them find an Exchange admin who can set them up with Spam Assassin or some other *simple* but effective spam filtering system on their server.

I used to have a reseller account and have shifted everything to a dedicated server. I now find that a couple of clients are getting lots of spam when they didn't before.
It seems that the servers used by the reseller account had some level of basic spam filtering installed; my provider suggested I look for a filtering program to install on my server.
There are, of course, dozens of them, so I wondered if anyone has any experience - enough, perhaps, to make a recommendation.

decent spam filtering service that allows you to do multiple domains and charges on a per user basis (with most you have to have the same domain or you have to buy another license pack). Anyway I'm looking to spend around $1-3 per user

Does anybody know if GD filters email BEFORE it reaches my domain? It surely seems so. I recently moved to GD. I turned off spam filtering and don't receive any spam on accounts that used to receive a lot of spam. The only possible explanation is that they kill it before it reaches my domain.

if anyone may know of a server spam filtering product which has these features....
1. stops identified spam at the server and keeps it for a period of time eg 7 days before dumping it
2. forwards clean mail to end user
3. end user gets daily report via email of mail tagged and kept
4. clickable link in daily email report to 'release' mail and send it
5. auto whitelists released mail (ie adds it to bayesian database / whitelist addresses)
6. configurable to work with either individual end user, or with eg domain sysadmin (who can view / help see mail for all domain users)
7. can be either a hosted service, or server software product; although linux opensource server product would be good.....
8. not hugely expensive :-)
I have been using ASSP for quite some time; and like it's accuracy. So I suppose what ideally I'm looking for is ASSP with Bells and Whistles. On Cpanel I'm using grscripts ASSP deluxe, and this already has some great bells, but lacks a couple of the whistles I'd like (as above).
If anyone has ideas - or can point me to other threads (I did a search here already, but couldn't refine my search enough to find anything relevant)

I have SpamAssassin on my server, and I use email piping to forward incoming emails to a PHP script. I'd like to know if emails go through SpamAssassin before being piped, or if they don't go through SpamAssasin. Where exactly is SpamAssassin requested to scan emails?

Can anyone recommend a hosted third-party spam filtering service for cPanel servers?
Most of the servers are reseller based, and I don't see myself or my team having to enter each individual email address into the service.
With that said, is there any service where you can just point the MX records to it, it would scan the email, and then deliver it?

We have a variety of clients that we just put on various providers/platforms that we use for various reason. I've given up on HSphere though. I can see the versatility in this but I just don't have the time to invest learning the interface. What is a +++ though is HSphere platforms bundle in urchin--so for certain sites, we can turn urchin up on the fly.
Is there any hosts you guys recommend that have Enterprise grade email filtering. Part of the problem we have seen is just the level of spam filtering. Even with Pair, stuff was just coming through. For those with email in house -- great , as we just run the MX through Postini 1st and lock down SMTP on the FW side.
For some of our clients *with some minor hiccups* at times, we moved them to Google Apps. The spam filtering is just a +++ as much as I would like to get away from Google on the email. And yes, I am aware they own Postini now...
Back on to Webhosting.
I think we have found a couple of new guys to try
For nix based hosting, I'm planning to move some sites to Medialayer. Support or just various emails between them is very good !
For windows, we are debating. I have to reach out to Karl over at Steadfast and or Wiretree to inquire...but I'm leaning on a Plesk Windows Shared or VPS.
Usability is key on the CP and Cpanel/Plesk is just so much easier than Hsphere.
For the *email aspects* that's tied into any hosting provider, Mosso was interesting - BUT just looking at status.mosso.com was frighting.

We want to configure our PPA mail node to send all outbound mail through our spam filtering appliance but don't know where to start.
Reading standard Postfix docs give basic instructions on how to direct a handful of domains through a mail relay but we want to direct every outbound email from all domains through our spam filter.
We also want to ensure that any regular updates to the mail node won't break or undo this config.

I have a colocated server with cpanel right now.
The cPanel license on my server just expired and I don't feel like paying for another month as there's 3-4 sites on that box that are still active.
I pay $80 a month for the colo with cpanel
So my questions are
1) What do you recommend (reseller vs vps) and who do I go with
2) How do I get my 4 sites off to the new cpanel with an expired license?
If anyone can help that'd be great. Looking to move within 48 hours

I've been reading a lot on this forum lately for a good VPS solution for me, but I've not been too lucky. Perhaps I am just too lazy to read all the posts.
At any rate, I've been with Alpha Red for about a year now and I feel I need to get something new (been having some problems with my mail server and speed, and since it isn't managed, I don't want to worry about fixing it myself). Thus, I am looking for a good VPS solution.
My needs aren't critical, most personal/business type sites, with some client hosting (clients can get very demanding traffic, however, as they will commonly get featured on Digg or YouTube). Because of the clients, I feel I need something clustered with redundancy. I tried out Mosso and just couldn't stomache the simplicity and lack of control.
Disk space would be around 10GB or higher, bandwidth around 500GB or higher (1TB would look amazing to me), and managed is really a plus. However, my budget is only around $150/mo (currently paying $139 for a very slow dedicated server).
I've been tempted to try MediaTemple, but recently looked at Zone.net's clustered VPS, and KnownHost.

opinion about what E-mail would be the best as a autoresponder and email campaign program. Something that can be configured to forward emails to different addresses from different recipients, automatic responces and scheduled email campaigns, all that kind of things. I would prefer an open source solution but if not any I would pay for that.
how to extract the text from an incoming email (through a script maybe) and input to another ougoing email?

I plan to host 20-40 domains that will include ~20 blogs total and roughly 20 SQL DB's. I anticipate 5-10 GB traffic / month.
With these requirements, can I realistically make use of a shared hosting plan (like HostGator's)? They claim unlimited domains, though I'm not sure how far I can really take this.
Update: shame on me: GB's, not TB's

I'm planning to operate my own dedicated server and bad news is I'm not much of a technical person. A friend recommends that I can use free Webmin as a front end (control panel) rather than paying for others. Do you think Webmin is suitable for newbie on this front?

I am planning to get 2 uplinks for a cluster of servers. So, there will be 2 different
IP subnets and 2 different uplinks. I want the switch:
1. To be able to switch providers when any one of them is down
2. To be able to load balance the traffic (optional)
Also, I prefer to use Cisco.

Something less then US$ 150 for the start and an option to move to a full blown (4 Cores, 4GB) dedicated server later would be optimal.
Requirements:
1000 GB Transfer
10 GB Disk
1024 GB Memory
Plesk Panel
There will also be download links to copyright protected material but this are only links, there is no copyright infringement on the server itself which is absolutely legal at least in Europe.

I have been hosting with automatedvps.com for a few months now.
I heartly recomend them.
They host windows 2003/2008 and centOS.
I use windows 2008 which is faster then windows 2003.
They have the best deal I found at the time and since.
Support is friendly, avilable by email and phone. I'm very pleased with it, for instance upon my request they reinstalled the OS at no extra charge.
CPU, memory and internet all work fast.

I wanted to recommend and give a review of my service with Steadfast. Before I went with steadfast I read WHT almost everyday, looking at different hosts. Steadfast has exceeded my expectations by far.
I have a basic shared account but the speed and service make me feel like it is a dedicated account. My site is still in construction so I wont give the address but I have never experience any lag in loading or it ever being offline.
Whenever I submit a ticket, simply because I have a question, I have never waited more than a few minutes. It is genius. I think that Steadfast's business plan is to have the best equipment and software with the best service and reliability so that their customers stay and say good things about them. Sounds like a plan to me.
One of the things that I like the most is that Karl, owner and operator, actually knows what he is talking about is always happy to help.
I had never paid for hosting before or had a domain name and thought that the control panel and learning curve of hosting was gonna be hard but it is well organized and everything runs so perfectly that I almost never need to log into the control panel.
A+++
(I would put the link to steadfast but the board says I don't have enough posts to link websites. Never heard of such a thing.)

my company is looking for a colo provider in the Bay Area. We have done some research and the final choice comes down to these 2 companies: internap and ethr.net.
Price wise, Internap is slightly more expensive on the bandwidth, setup cost and cabinet rental.
Could anyone provide some recommendation based on personal experience? Our service is live video streaming, therefore we are looking for good network with low latency and with a bandwidth of 100mbps.

I have a couple of things I could use some help with. I'm currently using shared hosting and have completely outgrown it. I need to move to a fully managed dedicated server.
The first thing I need some help with is figuring out what hardware configuration (in general) is going to be needed for the type of sites I'm managing and the next is getting feedback on a good hosting company.
Here's a quick description of the domains that I'm managing:
1. One domain is run with e107, Coppermine and Simple Machines Forum. It will have 1000+ potential paid subscription members. The gallery will have 30,000+ images.
2. Second domain will be running PhpProbid auction software. It will hopefully have similar stats as stampwants dot com. They are a specialized site (mine is going to be more general) but their numbers are what we are shooting for with our new site.
3. Third domain will be the same configuration as #1 but will be on a much smaller scale with free membership.
4. Fourth domain will only be running a Serendipity blog.
5. Fifth domain will be a ZenCart ecommerce site. Fairly small, maybe 500 items listed at a time.
6. Another 8 domains are very simplistic, small sites with just a few pages of basic html.
When shopping managed server hosting it's obvious that there are many different levels of server configurations. What I'm not familiar with is which hardware components are going to influence the performance for the types of sites that I'm working with. The biggest 'in my face' issue currently on my shared hosting plan is that domain #1 above is having consistent php memory errors even when the .htaccess file is set at 64m. I only have a very small portion of the data loaded. The server can't handle just the programs!
The second issue is going to be much more difficult. Trying to find a company that actually delivers what they say they do. I've spent days searching online for reviews, recommendations and customers' actual experiences. I've come to the conclusion that picking hosting is worse than trying to buy a used car!
