I’ve had great luck with Netactuate. Their pricing is decent, but not super cheap, but they provide excellent customer service and are very friendly and responsive. Their network is also top notch and trouble free. Owen

Tony,
BGP is helpful for email servers if you own your own clean IP space, because much cloud IP space is black listed.

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
