Unfortunately, Racknerd provides a majority of their services using a dedicated server hosting company (Colo Crossing) that is known for harboring spam and other malicious activity, so their IP space is generally either blacklisted, of very poor reputation, or in many cases, completely dropped at firewalls. Case in point, your message that originated from one of these IPs tripped up my workstation's local spam filtering plugin from ESET.

I can't speak to the bgp feed as this seems like unnecessary complication to me, but I use https://www.racknerd.com/ for personal email/web hosting KVM VM's and have found them to be excellent. They have yearly black Friday specials (last years - https://www.racknerd.com/BlackFriday/ ) that are very attractive. They don't block any ports on their US/Europe VM's. I use a primary pair in one city and rsync everything to a backup pair in another city (as well as home just to make sure). Not all cities can get V6 but most do.

Hey all,

I apologize if this isn't the right place to post this; however, I thought maybe the NANOG community would be able to point me in the right direction.

I'm looking for a place that I can host a mailer.  My primary use case is a Mailman-style technical discussion list; much like NANOG but software related instead of network related: READ: non-commercial in nature.

I'm currently a vultr customer, but they're refusing to unblock port 25 on my account.  I've tried explaining my use case but no matter who I talk to over there they just keep pointing me to their spam policy.

Thanks!
-Daniel

be opened closer to the Workshop dates.

My company Free Range Cloud (freerangecloud.com) offers BGP sessions.?
Port 25 is blocked by default, but can be unblocked by opening a support
ticket and previsioning justification for the request.

Can anyone at Hulu contact me off list? Have issues with some new
subnets we have and our end users cannot access the Hulu service with
various error messages.

Thanks
