I've been using Rimu Hosting (rimuhosting.com) for a couple years or
more and I love their service. They are hands down the best web host
company I've ever dealt with.
With the new reserved instance prices at Amazon, their EC2 service is
looking great if you want to pay for a year or 3 year contract. After
my experience with them at work I'm leaning more that way every day.
It's nice to setup a rails environment and then just replicate it
rather than starting with a clean Cent OS server.
Considering email, I also agree that Google Domain Apps is the way to
go. It's free if you only need about 25 accounts or less and don't
mind ads. You still get the same TLS support for pop, smtp and imap.
Managing a mail server is a pain so I wouldn't waste my time with
anything else.

I've looked around but it's far too easy to find piles of negative
feedback about everyone, and difficult to get an independent
review. So I thought I'd ask the people actually using Radiant
what they think.
The site itself is fairly simple, but we'll need a small pile of e-
mail addresses as well. Any suggestions, list?
I highly recommend Linode VPS. Granted, its not for everyone, one
has to wear his sysadmin hat for that. But it does provide you with
freedom to pick what services you're going to run on that box, like
your own mail server. Static IP included. Quite affordable.
I've heard good things about Media Temple.
For shared hosting, my experience is limited to Site5. We had some
issues related to fast-cgi setup (doesn't everyone?). Lately, they
switched to mod_rails, so I expect it will get better. Their support
is quite responsive.
