Basically, you point your MX record to Postini, they get your mail, and forward it to your mail server. That way, all the spam hits them first, and they filter everything for you. I don't know how much a single user account costs, but it's worth looking into. When I ran my own mail server, it was constantly flooded with spam.

I thought the conversation was about hosting a website... apologies.

Running your own email server does imply being hit with spam. -- Stuart On 29 Apr 2010 at 16:26, Jim Lawrence wrote: ... > > Running your own IIS or Apache server does not imply being hit with spam or > a security risk...that is what routers are for. > ... > > > I just need a reality check as to whether trying to host a website > > in-house is insane, doable, easy, > > difficult?
