Thanks for clearing that up, David.
I do wonder why people look to hosting providers for installing QMT. You
can run a small QMT domain on a PII-266MH w/ 512M (that was my first QMT
host). QMT really doesn't take much to run, especially with spamdyke
installed. Building the rpms may take a little while, but so what? With
qtp-newmodel, the server is still online while the rpms build. You can
even run one on a dynamic IP address, provided you use a service such as
DynDNS for dynamic DNS services and outbound email (smarthost) relay.
To each his own though. I realize that self hosting isn't always
practical, although it is more so than many seem to realize.

Me 3 here, you can't do QMT on shared hosting, you need a VPS. Someone
suggested the Linode and that looks good, VPSLink is one I've used, You
need 512Mb once Clam and SpamAssassin start working. It is difficult to
manage CLAM in a 512 container without swap - VPSLink don't have swap,
Linode does. I'm currently using a Westnet/iiNet VPS - because it is
close in Aus.

I have a question regarding this QMAIL. Right now our current mail
server is a physical box running the Qmail toaster and we usually using
the squirrelmail. Recently, Our company is planning to transfer it to a
hosting providers. Here are the following question that needs to be
answered.
1.) Does Qmail and squirrelmail can be installed in a shared hosting? If
Yes/No please give me some explaination of how to do it. If you provide
a link related this topic.
Certainly. I don't have experience personally with hosting providers,
but I think there are some in the community that run QMT in hosted
environments. You'll need root access to your host. I would recommend
512M of RAM, and 6G HDD for the system plus whatever space you need
for mailboxes.
2.) Does any shared hosting is already has already offered a service
with Qmail and squirrelmail installed already? can you please suggest 1
or 2 samples of that Hosting Provider
I'm not aware of any who provide a prebuilt QMT image.
