Email Hosting Recommendations?

2010-01-02 Thread Kevin Kempter
Hi All;

I'm looking for a good email hosting solution for 5-10 users. Were mostly 
Linux Desktop users with a few Mac's.

Any suggestions?


Thanks in advance

I used to host my own email on an old Fedora server. I've since moved
sterndata.com to Google. With Google For Your Domain, you can get 5-10
accounts for free.
http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/business/index.html -- see the
"standard" plan.

You access get to your accounts via POP, IMAP, web, and Exchange Active
Sync.  I use thunderbird on my Linux desktop, Outlook on my Windows
laptop and the native email, calendar, and contact apps on my iPhone.
All with the free, standard edition.

In addition, each account can have a very large number of aliases.

With that small number of users, you'd fit in the free version of
Google Domains.  You can either read your mail online with a UI that
looks just like GMail, or configure it to use POP or IMAP.

I use Google Domains, and am very happy with it.

It includes spam filtering that works pretty well.

Basically what you do when you sign up is prove to Google that you own
the domain by placing a file they specify on your web server, or else
adding a DNS record if you don't have a web server.  Then you
configure each of your user accounts, and set up some MX records that
point to Google's mail servers.

Any particular reason why you don't just set up your own mailserver?

If you want to pay for Support, then something like here:

http://www.rackspace.com/email_hosting/rackspace_email

(Full Disclosure: I work in another division of that Company)

If you don't want Support, why not something like Google Apps for
Domains? That's what I use... (I also have Macs in the house)

Yes just buy a dedicated served pre-loaded with Linux and install Mail
server stack (eg: Postfix + Dovecot + Spamassain + Amavis +
Squirrelmail).

I used to do that, but then I wanted more... synchronization of
contacts, mail, and calendars among machines, iPhone access, better web
access than Horde, etc.  I came close to setting up an Exchange server
(had a free copy via some MS promotion), but opted for Google instead.

Do they support Alpine?? 

Several million people at last count (I for one) still consider 
it the only mailer worth installing. I always get rid of any others -- 
especially any form of webmail, which I happen to detest with a passion. 

Rackspace seems to take webmail for granted, though -- always and 
only webmail. 

They do say at one point "... or any other POP/IMAP client." But 
it doesn't sound very convincing in context.

I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is.

It supports POP3 and IMAP, so I can't see why not.

Considering that one of Mailtrust's (the Rackspace Division that does
this) employees is the lead developer of Dovecot, I would expect it to
work.
