Someone to deal with things that came up. Most of us got OUT of the mail server business and let the big boys deal with it. For use, AWS was a sure thing on the fact that their very tight ship ensures that things are deliverable without drama. However, If someone already has a bunch of Mailman experience and can deal with the receiving mail server issues AND not get blacklisted, then it’s not “a thing”. If they don’t, well…. then it most definitely IS a thing J Our original concept that we needed AWS for was quite simple. The email portion is the only part that got complicated. The Mailman instance has a fair amount of customization on its current instance to make it intertwine properly with AWS, so if someone wants to take that one, they also need to consider that they will mostly be starting from scratch on Mailman configuration, etc. I have to say though, there is something to be said for the fact that …. now, it just runs and runs. I wouldn’t take a Cambium solution and downgrade it to UBNT just because it is “price disruptive”. We are glad to continue to admin it. Contributions towards the AWS of course are nice. But, its Chuck’s list and his decision.

That being said, I don't think it is worth that amount at all whatsoever. That just seems like a crazy amount of money for what basically amounts to a redundant list. Now that the republicans on the list are requesting it as a 'safe space' free from politics, it is hard to see where there is still a need that justifies that expense.

I checked with Amazon on the support consideration (currently paying $ 100 for that). Unfortunately, to have support available on the API (which is needed on the mailing part) , we have to keep the $ 100 monthly support plan. There is no pay per incident for the API level plan, and if you are haven't paid for the plan previously when there is an incident, you can't buy it and then cancel it etc.. The monthly recurring AWS costs since October 2014, has averaged $ 249.34. So, figure an annual cost of $ 2992 in AWS fees. Probably, a little expensive but I am glad to continue it.
