My client is a financial services firm with very large email
requirements. Hundreds of messages per day both in and out, with
attachments in the 1MB to 10MB range. Can anyone suggest a US-based
hosting service that would be appropriate and cost effective? HTTP
activity is nominal.
Thanks,
Ray
If you're going for a virtual host, I can recommend BlueVirtual.com from
personal experience, I've been with them since 1998, when the owners
worked for a different company. I go through tens of thousands of emails
per day (mostly spam, they offer SpamAssassin on all POP3 accounts). Not
making a dime for the referral. Just a very satisfied customer who still
pays them for virtual hosting despite having unrestricted free access to
4 dedicated servers at work.
If you're looking for a dedicated server solution - which a "financial
services firm" can probably more than afford, especially if you're
reselling it to them at a profit like you should be, right ;) - I suggest
phatservers.com. Their fees are reasonable, they have a phat pipe, and
something that's important when it comes to email, they aren't in any
RBLs/DNSBSLs like the "cheapie" dedicated providers (e.g. RackS[\w+])
often are. Nonprofit mention from a satisfied customer here, too.
