I used to run my own DNS, email, SPAM filtering etc. Several years ago I got a Google Enterprise account, which you can associate with your own domain. Since day one, its been virtually 100% SPAM free. I used to have to spend hours every couple of months configuring/re-configuring/tweaking/testing the SPAM filters etc. Since this account setup, I've never spent a single minute worrying about spam etc. and it's well worth the $50/user/year for me. If you do a "dig logical-approach.com mx" you'll see the email from this domain going to Googles email servers. And, if you look at the DNS servers for the domain (dig logical-approach.com ns), you'll see that I'm running DNS using Amazon Web Services Route 53 ($0.50/month/domain).
Worth every $0.01 IMHO and highly recommended. ref: Google Enterprise <http://www.google.com/enterprise/apps/business/pricing.html> and AWS Route53 <http://aws.amazon.com/route53/> Regards, On Wed, Oct 8, 2014 at 10:35 AM, Robert Moskowitz <[email protected]> wrote: > Something to think about for a wintery night. :) > > I am on so many lists that have gotten me so much spam that I need some > help.
