  • Are small mailing lists supported? We're a small consortium of local small businesses and we have a list of owners that occasionally send out emails when there's a get together or a vendor visiting, etc. Probably less than 3-5 emails a month that goes out to ~25 owners. I'm currently using a mix of mailman and forwarders but it's a pain to manage.

    Allowed, but we don't offer any interface for managing them. I recommend Sendy most of the time, but for that a simple forwarder with multiple recipients is probably fine.

    Large: 3-year billing cycle is more expensive than 2-year billing cycle.

    • $30 / year, average $30.00 per year
    • $55 / 2 years, average $27.50 per year
    • $85 / 3 years, average $28.33 per year

    Small vs Lifetime:

    • Lifetime: $75 / lifetime
    • Small: $15 / 3 years, double storage

    The choice hinges on: will MXroute deadpool in next 15 years?

    We have the $3 / 3 years plan since 2023.
    Breakeven point is 75 years, as long as MXroute doesn't pull a Crunchbits PulsedMedia and increase renewal price.

    Bought from @jar for 100 GB for 30$ for 3 years. Renewed for another 3 years, a longest strangers @jar from internet having my renewal for (6 years over + 3 years now) 9 years now.

    Ok, thanks. Hope the kiddos don’t grow up to be spammers!

    Between 11/24 and right now...

    Protection against spam from Google Cloud servers has rejected 18,042 spam emails. Zero false positives.

    Careless OVH VPS spammers were rejected 7,999 times. Zero false positives.

    A new protection against misconfigured websites that would have very slightly dinged IP reputation rejected 604 outbound emails. Zero false positives.

    "susranges" rejected 775,332 emails, unlikely more than 50 of them are what I'm calling the last round of false positives (I mean there will never really be a last one, but this effort will destroy them at the same time).

    Protection against a professional spammer that OVH hasn't yet caught rejected 2,714 spam emails. Zero false positives.

    A crackdown on Sendgrid spam designed to not hit on their corporate customers that everyone might want to receive mail from rejected 4,751 emails. Estimated upwards of 25 may be false positives, path to resolution in place.

    Filtering inbound spam is no longer the thing that I reluctantly do to reduce complaints. It is now a passion. At every turn I've caused false positives. This time I'm causing a few more, no more than usual, with the path to their end being part of the plan instead of something that I walk back my efforts for in defeat.

    Thanks! Dumb question, what are my options if we ever hit the disk space limit? Can we buy more gigs/upgrade plans or do we have to buy a new plan and migrate everything ourselves?

    You can upgrade to Small/Medium/Large plans at any time. If you happen to be on Witcher or Glacier servers, we can also upgrade you (on request) to the large storage plans we have. If you outgrow the Large plan on another server over time, just drop in a ticket and we'll see what we can do. I'm always fair and generous there, but outgrowing the Large plan on most of our servers isn't a situation where I can guarantee particular result without reviewing the situation.

    What you do with the SMTP login you create is up to you, so long as it conforms to our policies :heart:

  • Is it possible to move from a server to another one? Like my box is with qps, and I want to move to hetzner for lower latency...

    And will IPv6 be supported in the future? :)

    @satorik said: Is it possible to move from a server to another one? Like my box is with qps, and I want to move to hetzner for lower latency...

    Not reasonably possible. Email is pretty latency tolerant overall and this server has an amazing network, it should be fine.

    @satorik said: And will IPv6 be supported in the future?

    Most likely I'll wait until it becomes a necessity to go down that road again.

  • wait did mxroute increase limits for email per hour ? is it only for new orders @jar ?

    I did. I haven’t announced it yet, but 400 outbound per hour, per email account, is the new limit.

  • I was waiting for this, thanks jar!

    Frankly the idea that I would properly use a calculator today was a bit optimistic. I haven’t slept well in weeks. I really wanted to have another interface upgrade done by today 😢

    Just some feedback - logged into my 100gb plan today and really liked the new layout - keep up the good work. Not sure if it's a newer version of DA or your customizations but it just felt more slick / teh snappy than it has in the past.

    sounds too costly. I demand 10 usd for lifetime

  • Note to jarland and the crew - happy thanksgiving, I got a BF deal (which includes far more storage than I need) many years ago and to be honest, I simply take MXRoute for granted these days. It just works. Overall reliability has been amazing. Cannot remember a single extended outage. Any questions about deliverability have been answered quickly. Just an exceptionally solid service from a very dedicated crew. Thanks.

    @jar said: Instead of blanket blocking IPs, we now refuse email from suspicious ranges unless it's authenticated or whitelisted.

    What does authenticated and whitelisted mean here? DMARC? IP whitelisted? sender email address whitelisted?

    Authenticated meaning logged in user. Basically your dynamic residential ISP IP should never be sending mail to our server unless you’re our customer and you’re logged in. But sometimes a mail server sits right in the middle of a bunch of dynamic residential IPs, and that’s what the whitelist is for.

    Sure, but what's changed then? Surely, users always need to be logged in anyway. Or did you previously apply the blacklist to SMTP submission as well (not even allowing authentication from blacklisted IP addresses)?

    Those IPs could just open a connection and deliver an email to us as though it were a third party mail server. Depending on the customer’s spam filter configuration, sometimes they would pass to the inbox.

    If they were blacklisted in an RBL queried by SA, they would be caught even if just in a Received header. If they were blocked at the network level, customers of that ISP would at minimum have reduced functionality.

    Nice email outbound increased from 300 to 400 per hour. Competition gets to @jar I guess 😆
