BuyVM.NET / BuyShared.NET - Shared - $5/year | Resellers - $2.00/month! Dedicated IPv4! SSD RAID!
"It good SSD, not worry."
"But....it's missing its sides!"
"I said not worry. Now go."
I could see imports being hard and customs being a real pain.
While the whole worlds in a state of shittiness, i'd like to host in countries that are, for the
most part, stable

When i'm ready to light up a location i'll likely run a poll via email as well as on here and get some feedback
I'm pretty sure I did this back when I wanted feedback on backups, I just have to go through my old google crap.

Does that mean you've looked into colo options in the UK? Be interesting to hear of which you liked the looked of.
Getting back to this thread a tad bit late, sorry about that you two!
We've decided that we will spin the shared plans off under BuyShared and already have a designer on retainer.
Here's his initial sketches:

Yes, it's all filler text so don't go cackling about seeing captain #winning in there. With BuyShared it has no public face so we can really go with whatever colour scheme/ideas/etc we want.
Any and all feedback is appreciated.

Scandic location would be good, something like norway/sweden/finland. Not much good offers on those areas
The problem with hitting Europe is if you go with too exotic of a location, people will be uneasy with it. If you're in too mainstream of a place, people will dislike that as well

Easier on the eyes, mostly. More pleasing to look at.
To be honest, for BuyShared we told Korey that he had full say in colours/flow.
With it being a 'blank slate' no one was expecting any one colour.
On the other hand, whenever BuyVM gets redone and we don't use the green we currently use?
There would be blood shed in the ranks >_>

BuyVM shared is a win all around.
Btw, for my fellow clients, I started getting spam fast and looks like either learning is disabled or sa-learn isn't installed. Here's a trick to cut out some of the excess from what I've monitored thus far.
Filename: /home/username/.spamassassin/user_prefs
Contents:
required_score 5
score RCVD_IN_BRBL_LASTEXT 2
score RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET 5
score DATE_IN_PAST_12_24 1
I gave DATE_IN_PAST_12_24 a very slight increase, barracuda a reasonable increase but not enough to send to the spam folder alone, but spamcop I put up there at "Yeah just don't bother putting it in my inbox."

Works fine.
DKIM is supported, no idea what STARTLS does past being encryption related.

Specifically: https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/1140Docs/Exim+Security
That implies that STARTTTLS has some role. I'm with Fran though, that's not in my vocabulary.
You wouldn't be able to make changes there, of course. If you feel a feature is beneficial for everyone on a shared server that isn't enabled, open a ticket and make your case, I'm sure the guys would gladly weigh the pros and cons and see if it's a reasonable request.

You know how HTTPS is HTTP under an TLS encryption layer, and HTTPS usually runs on port 443 while HTTP uses port 80? STARTTLS is the more modern way of optionally encrypting. You use just one port, i.e. port 25 in the case of SMTP. You connect insecurely, and then to enable TLS you send a STARTTLS command through the unencrypted connection. That requests a TLS handshake (just like with HTTPS) after which you have an encrypted connection. Just like with HTTPS, you need a certificate on the server side and can optionally use one on the client side. So my question was, basically, if you're serving yourdomain.com from cPanel, whether the cPanel email integration can also use use your certificate and private key to encrypt SMTP connections.
Also, is there some limit on the number of mailboxes? Being able to serve a whole email domain with unlimited mailoxes from a $5/year shared hosting instance is an amazing value. Other places charge $10+ per year per mailbox. Of course you could self-host with a VPS but then you're constantly maintaining spam filters and everything else.
