Yes... And so I thought. However, I keep getting myself into corners
where it worked fine on my stand-alone box, where I had the ability

Most of the mail modules are broken this way. There are others.
I have given up on shared hosting drupal , except when I am using
generic modules.

Yes. Fast database services are vital.
