What Do I Need For My Email Lists Volume
Mar 10, 2009
My host has a limit of 1000 emails/hour on shared hosting, so I'm thinking of getting VPS.
I currently send out 5000 emails/day with an average 10kb size (using Mailman).
I'm planning on switching to sympa. I'm wondering what kind of vps specs I'd need to send 20,000 emails/day? 50,000? 100,000?
Or another way of putting it: how much volume could I handle on a VPS with 256mb ram?
How much does the email size affect matters? (I'm wondering if attachments are resource intensive).
What is more likely to be the limiting factor: memory or cpu?

On a standard CentOS4 installation do mysql databases get stored in the /var volume or is it /home? Does that mean I need to ask the dedicated server host to create /var really big if I'm expecting my MySQL database to get huge? Or is it better to reinstall MySQL so it puts the databases on the largest volume?

does anyone know if this is safe, i mean when i ordered the server they advertised 500 gb sataII but i never knew that they actually come with 2 hdd and somehow combined into one hdd like raid0
i got one 320gb hdd and second 160 gb which together it count as 500? sounds like a joke to me but anyway They installed this Logical Volume Manager and wondering if its safe or if its same as raid0?

Ive just bought a Power Edge 2600 and I decided to setup the three disks that came with it as raid 5 (within PERC) and installed Win2003 Std. Works great.
But while browsing one of my MCSA books I read that using a raid 5 configuration on the system / boot volume it is next to useless as it offers no redundancy should a volume fail. (With respect to easily booting it back up should a volume fail)
I'm going to use Raid 1 (again with PERC) across two other drives for my exchange data but I'm worried about my system volume. Is my MS book talking about the OS not been able to rebuild data should a volume fail or is this a general rule for raid 5 setups?

I need a relatively cheapy box to serve my thumbnails for my site. Gotta have around 2TB.
I really don't need anything fancy as its just going to serve thumbnails for my main site which sits at PacificRack.
Provider should be in USA and port speed would be 100mbps.

In your opinion, what are the "best" providers of dedicated servers - with a volume/reseller discount? I do not want to go through a reseller or third party myself, so I'm looking for "tier 1" providers.
As a company, we're looking at moving into the hosting industry, as well as consolidating our development clients onto our own hosting. Currently, they're spread out over tens (if not hundreds) of different hosts. This is an absolute nightmare maintenance wise. Previously, our customers chose the hosting - we merely managed their application/service.
Our client base is growing exponentionally, as we are now expanding beyond local/national businesses. We're intending to target the global SME market, as well as going after new start-ups.
Our current estimates put us with needing roughly 12 - 24 (depending on specification) servers to begin with, with our server base doubling roughly every 3 - 4 months.
We're looking at sourcing from more than one supplier, so it would be nice to get some recommendations of providers in Europe, the United Kingdom, America - and various other locations. Providers with a trial option would be nice, so we don't have to drop a "bomb" to begin with, only to be burned in the future.

I'm looking at a project that would need to be located in Panama for server co-location.
It will be very bandwidth intensive, requiring 100 megabits to start and moving up from there. Going with a slightly more "value" oriented provider provided there's a backup (even lower bandwidth) available would be an option, as this application would tolerate limited periods of reduced bandwidth.
Can anybody point me in the direction of some data centers that might be worth looking at? Are there any bandwidth providers down there with a real value focus?
Right now, the best I've seen is $99/megabit from [url] I'm expecting bandwidth to cost more down in Panama, but I'd really like to push this number lower.

My Centos server running Plesk12 is running scheduled backups every sunday 3AM.
The backup is configured so that it's created as a multivolume backup with a volume size of 2047MB.
The backup is placed on my Personal FTP repo (another plesk12 server mounted with big storage).
The backup content is configured to backup server config and content (all).
The problem I have is when the backup is running I can see that it creates the volumes and stores it locally. After it send all the volumes the the external FTP repo it will delete the local (tmp) data. See my attached screenshot for storage health during backup.
Is this behaviour normal? This way we can never run a backup to an external FTP repo when our server passed 50% storage. Is it not normal to:
- Create a volume
- Send it to FTP repo
- Delete volume locally
- Repeat until done

I have a client/friend who I am developing a website for and they want a mailing list feature.
I have a shared-hosting account and they have quite strict mailing list policies.
Firstly, they require a double opt-in for each contact, so that each address is validated. I have discussed this with the client, who run an events company, most of the email addresses they receive are taken from attendees who write their email down at the event. They would rather not have to verify each email address before adding to list.
My other concern is whether my hosting will be able to handle the mailing list. There seems to be quite strict limitations on amount of emails that can be sent (1 every 8 seconds).
I have no idea as to the volume of the list, they do not have any emails at the moment, but as the list and company grows I am worried there may be problems which I would rather not have to deal with.
Is mailing on shared-hosting often a done-thing, or should I suggest a third-party mailing solution?

I'm currently experiencing a problem on several accounts on the same server. It seems that the mailing lists sections of Cpanel keeps sending out emails that don't exist.
For example, I have one of my sites set up with a moderated mailing list. When an email comes in, I get an email telling me that I have something waiting to be approved. Well, I got about 100 in 2 days and there's nothing there to be approved. Actually it's the SAME message over and over.
I have several clients with the same issues where the mailing lists keeps sending out old emails but the same ones over and over.

I've just came across an issue with mailing list on a Linux server. Problem is that when a message is broadcasted from a mailing list having around 1500 subscribers, most of them having @yahoo.com and @hotmail.com addresses, message to most of the recepients fails with following error...
Code:
2009-07-09 12:26:25 1MOn2u-0001CB-QJ SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:<he***k@yahoo.com>: host c.mx.mail.yahoo.com [216.39.53.3]: 452 Too many recipients
It is becuase exim tries to send a message to as many recepients as it could to users on same domain
On a Windows server, i was running Merak mail server and there was an option to send separate message to all mailing list subscribers, but i don't know where it could be located in exim config, or even if it has!

Come across this a few times now, when I come to issue a new VPS find that a IP address is on a spam list from a previous owner of the IP range, even came across and IP block we got issued with a few null-routed IPs!
Has anyone, or hosting providers come across this? Where datacenter issue IPs with problems? On spam lists or worse . . .

Is there a way to configure the mailing lists created with Plesk (using MailEnable 6.5) using Plesk or another web interface like it is possible with mailman under Linux?
It is not very convenient to be required to do such stuff via RDP (and so manual by me for every customer)...

There seems to be confusion and documentation conflicts around whether we should be whitelisting localhost or not when using Mailing Lists.
In this documentation it suggests that localhost is no longer needed, and in fact needs to be removed from the whitelist if Outbound Spam protection is to function correctly: [URL] ....
But on the other hand, this documentation suggests to add localhost to the whitelists, even though the warning says otherwise, and that outgoing mailing list mail will still be processed by Outgoing Spam Control. [URL] ....
Through trial and error, i've found that my mailing lists were not able to send mail to external email accounts unless localhost is whitelisted.
If I want all mail scripts to be going through the Outbound Spam Control, and also having my mailing lists working, should I be adding localhost to my whitelist?

I am happily running Plesk 11.5; with just one small but annoying persistent problem:
I have Clients with large mailinglistes
- SpamAssassin
- Server-wide greylisting
- DNSBL
is running.
But apparently many of the lists mail addresses have been harvested over the years. And as there is no easy way to use SA in mailman, I am down to greylisting only for list addresses.
This results in insanely large amounts of SPAM (-> moderation requests) on the client's lists. Is this behavior improved in Plesk 12?
Or can probably SIEVE filters work here - are those available to mailman? (probably not as they work in Dovecot?)

I just upgraded to 12.x from 11.5, and now the messages to the mailman lists on the server are being rejected for headers being over 32K.
I finally saw this when joining the list myself to see why so many recipient servers are rejecting the mail. I see many instances of these:
Received-Spf: pass (server.mydomain.net: localhost is always allowed.) client-ip=127.0.0.1; envelope-from=thelist-bounces@clientdomain.com; helo=mail.mydomain.net;
and there's one towards the end with:
Domainkey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=default; d=clientdomain.com; b=RYN97cdOiqBdkm17GknWv0IMwOmsBHoK+eRaAjYey1vg6+jke2Z35Z1CFBIs/ZvrSslcc1X3kSzu/5SvHzuZVS1nB7zEPDBdr7jZ/Y3ViFccqDWNQbbFjpW9/7tVrFRssMv55gCMNnDwmgqK8WfU1vMkHwfdsuDnIkmB4OtAfqP9w=; h=Received-SPF:Received-SPF:Received-SPF:Received-SPF:Received-SPF:Received-SPF:Received-SPF:Received-SPF:Received-SPF:Received-SPF:
[Code] ....
How do I stop getting all those Received-SPF: headers prepended to the mailman list? It tags on a header that's well over 32K for a message that is less than 1K.

I have 2 domains on a CentOS Linux server running Plesk 11.0.9.
Domain1.com has several mailing lists, and they work OK visible at http://lists.Domain1.com/mailman/listinfo.
I just created a mailing list for Damain2.com. The list is created OK, but I can't acces it over the web http://lists.Domain2.com/mailman/admin/mylist1
Browser reports "Firefox can't find the server at lists.domain2.com."
What can I do to fix this? I need to edit the lists preferences.

I find that I like using CPanel with addon domains in a new unlimited domains shared plan rather than using WHM with each name having its own CPanel in a reseller plan (which I have been used to until now at another host). The only problem is that all the addon domains are out of order - they are not even in the order in which I add them. This puts a damper on things and makes managing them much less efficient than one would expect with the addons in order.
After putting in a support ticket, I was told they can't do anything about it at all. They told me the order of the listing is the order in the "mail server apache configuration."
After posting this matter here in the Apache forum, I have been informed by an SP member that the answer I got wouldn't hold any water at all, or more accurately, consists of a whole lot of smoke. As a person who knows how easy and basic it is to sort data lists or drop-down form selector fields myself, I must admit that it's hard to believe nothing can be done in the 21st century.
I have no desire at all to go with another reseller plan, and like using CPanel instead with addons.
Does anyone know of the good and well known unlimited domain hosting providers who keep the addon domains in order within CPanel? Is there any other good option for shared hosting that doesn't involve using WHM and does offer common sense multiple domain management where everything is in order?

I am having issues in receieving emails. For some reason, the rbl lists I had setup are causing the server to reject emails (retry - timeout). So, I need to take this rbl list completely. How can I do that? exim.conf is locked and using the advanced editor is no fun even though I tried it putting the dnslists without the rbl causing the problem.
