Small VPS for mail
Hello
I am looking for a small VPS for mail, firstly I would like to play with software like iredmail, secondly I have a dedi at some company and I have registered acciunt with the e-mail that is hosted on the same server so if for some reason it will fail I won't be able to contact with my provider. I will not send any spam and I need it for playing with the software and for only one mailbox. Can anyone offer me something in europe?

Play around with iredmail on a local VM and go with MXRoute to handle the actual mailing?
Would this work?
1vCore
25GB HDD Disk
512MB RAM
1024MB Swap RAM
500GB Bandwidth
1 IPv4
Can have it available in Germany, France, Finland and UK for £19.99 per year.
no - I want VPS, I like to host myself as much as possible.
@ramnet has clean IPs, go for a TinyKVM for MTA, and setup the rest of your crap on something larger.
go for HostDoc. The offer is a kvm if i am not mistaken.
Just don't let a doctor probe you.

I didn't do nothin'. I am entirely, utterly, unmostly, innocent.
The first time I heard "cavity search" was when I started to play GTA V.
GTA, teaching us the real life since 1997.
Mailcow's non-docker Githib script is still usable. I forgot why I don't use iRedMail and the iRedAdmin-Pro looked nice but the pricing was ridiculous. Annual renew fee wasn't too bad.

ULTRAVPS.EU has some 512mb KVM. Under 24 euro/y IIRC
Usermin (without webmin!) is an option for light email management (and it's on FreeBSD port tree)
Our KVM Power Light is your perfect choice in germany. Own Server, Router, Switches and Control Panel.
512MB RAM wont be enought for iredmail, because it comes with amavis and sogo.
You can deactivate the features, but iirc you're forced to use amavis during installation.
I manage a 2GB VPS for a friend's business and his mailserver using that Mailcow install for the past 2-3 years. 36% RAM usage right now and he has 5 employees, 3 devices per employee and they're a 24/7 company. A decent volume of daily mail too. No issues whatsoever.
I've run personal mail servers in various providers
linode, personal fav. their ipv4 are clean, the default ipv6 is usually on spamhaus but the additional ipv6 are clean (and free)
digitalocean, their IPs are OKish
hosthatch, their sweden location has clean-smooth IPs, their amsterdam location is not so good
hetzner, spamhaus blocks requests from hetzner range so you'll need to have a free account to use them.
Tested locations
Linode, japan dc 1 and 2
Do singapore and Bangladesh
Now I understand Marsons' facial expression.
Thank you for all replies, as others said the minimum of RAM is 2 GB because of antivirus and anti-spam modules so I think I will stick with 2 GB, unfortunately I have no idea about CPU utilization. I consider buying OVH VPS SSD 1 or kimsufi KS-3, so I can use it to HDD space as a backup, but I don't know if Intel Atom N2800 or VPS-SSD1 will be sufficient to handle 1 mailbox?
@marson hetzner cloud does the trick, €3.01 incl vat for 2gb ram, 1 core, 20GB NVMe SSD, 20tb traffic
@FoxelVox The problem is that I have dedi at hetzner and I don't want to have mail in the same DC
Hetzner cloud has more than one DC. Just pick a different DC. Hetzner are a provider that isn't going to go away tomorrow so you should be safe, though do always keep backups of course
