given that the cost of running one's own mail server is so low, I
dont see why people bow to the big G
IMO, this solution is not for everyone.
Besides, assuming one had competency in this domain and the time, many
sites reject mails from IP blocks belonging to ISPs. Thanks to
spammers, the whole block appears in RBLs.
a hetzner server costs 40 euro a month - if I can get another 5 guys
from ilugc to contribute, I can set up a mail/web server that we can
all use - free of the big G and secure (if the best talent in ilugc
cannot secure a server, god help this planet)
