Re: [Radiant] Hosting 0.7.1 site w/ Papperclipped
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.

Re: [Radiant] Hosting 0.7.1 site w/ Papperclipped
I've been with a lot of VPS providers over the years and Slicehost is the best ever. I also agree with what Adam said about Google for email. Use Google apps for email and be done with it. https://manage.slicehost.com/customers/new?referrer=e7e518e0fe761c84ece0b0e175d55d4a This setup is working great for me. Hope you find something that works for you! On Apr 8, 2009, at 3:03 PM, Jamey Cribbs wrote: I can't say enough good things about Slicehost.

Re: [Radiant] Hosting 0.7.1 site w/ Papperclipped
I've had a lot of success using Dreamhost. Its a discount hosting service so you're getting what you pay for. There have been some unfortunate downtime but in my opinion, its the best option until you're up to the volumes that warrant something like slicehost (http://www.slicehost.com/). Regardless, I would use Google for the email (which is easy to do with Dreamhost); that way if you move hosts, your email doesn't move.
