nice site.. I've seen some of my off-list replies to SOME people get eaten by one of those sites... sorbs-xxx sounds familiar..Correct. I've been doing it for over 5 years now. As long as your IP reputation is clean, you shouldn't have any issues sending outbound mail from your Postfix box. Let's see: http://www.mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=""> Clean as a whistle. You won't get blocked due to dnsbls ("RBLs"). and that was from my HOSTING service.. bad news! well, I'm not sure I see the difference between tzo & dyndns, as far as services are concerned.. I'd have to look up reviews, comments..tzo would be twice as expensive as dyndns, and we are only talking dns hosting, but I'll look at both. cough, cough, ever considered quitting smoking??<G>Interestingly, I had to renew my 12 month service just last month. I went looking around for cheaper DNS hosting. I thought I'd be able to find "DNS only" hosting for a similar or cheaper rate. I couldn't find any. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, but I couldn't find it. The closest thing I found was VPS for $9.95 a month which included DNS hosting, but I didn't want or need a VPS. So, for that reason, and that fact that when I move I may end up with a dynamic IP, I stuck with TZO. I'm a smoker, at a pack a day. I spend, currently, $3.76 per day on smokes. TZO DNS hosting is $5 per _month_. Makes it really easy to justify when put in these terms. :) Paul, if you do this, and create an MX record to get the mail flowing to your Postfix server, you need to make damn sure you've got Postfix setup correctly to receive inbound mail for pcartwright.com. *AND* you need to login to your current domain registrar and change your dns servers over to TZO. Every domain registered has DNS servers assigned to that domain. For instance: yeah, I've done that before.. I know how to log into my registrar.. I just transferred my domain 2 years ago. I had a problem with my ISP, AT&T not wanting to send emails to my domain, and vice-versa.. so I dropped AT&T as my ISP and moved my domain to justhost. I really wanted to host my own email, but I missed the dns server issue..Info on transferring name servers:http://www.tzo.com/MainPageDomains/TransferringDomains.html I WILL do that! seems like my domain has a problem emailing you off-list.. as I recall..I've not spoon fed you everything. There's quite a bit to setup in the TZO control panel, such as your domain name, etc. You'll figure it out. Ping me on or off list if you need help. As always, *read before doing*. :) -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 |
