Hurro, I'd have to echo this, with my own customers, my 'real' job and my private email. Folks with email hosted with big cloud providers (google, rackspace and Microsoft Azure) all had their email. In-house and small ISP's locally had issues or no email at all after 222. In the weeks after February I shifted just under a Tb of email into the cloud across eight companies. It's a no-brainer really, although I do wonder about commercial businesses hosting their mail with (free) gmail rather than in google apps, but that's a whole other discussion. I shifted my own email to rackspace about a year ago, give or take. Having my own IMAP on a colo when I was hosting and then at home for years I would not go back to hosting my own email again. It's great from a geek bragging point of view, but at the end of the day I want to use email, not fiddle with it. Cheers, Me. -----Original Message----- From: "Nick Rout" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, 27 June, 2011 12:18 To: "Canterbury Linux Users Group" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Linux-users] The best mail client FLMAO
Actually I have run a mail server (behind a fixed IP adsl connection) and i have also used googgle apps for my present work domain and have to say that I was more likely to have connectivity with gmail/google than with the previous setup. Even in the aftermath of the 22/2 earthquake my data connection stayed up on my phone, and I had email (both my work domain and this gmail account).
