I've been with drramhost for at least 10 years, but Im about to move everything because of their recent move from open source webmails to only atamail or whatever the new one is called. I spent a lot of time locking down my squirrelmail install, only to login one day and be greeting by a completely different client. Sure they had warnings, but none of those warnings clearly stated the forced move, I thought I could opt out. As for the rest of their service, Their actual server performance is decent, but their VPS offerings dont seem competitive these days, so Im strugling to find a reason to stay.

I had their VPS, but they do not give you root access. (In fact removed root access from one I used for a few years, screwing a bunch of my stuff up). Kind of a strange definition of VPS they have now.

  This is managed VPS, which is kinda convenient if you don't want to manage servers yourself. For the more "normal" unmanaged VPS with root access, there's DreamCompute. It's even cheaper than DigitalOcean — $4.50 for 512 MB. I recently switched https://iwl.me https://iwl.me to it, and it works well.

    That is fine, but I was using it before those restrictions, which is annoying. Then I switched to Dream Compute and lost the email hosting for the domain.

      Oh, I didn't know it was unrestricted before. (Re-read your comment) Yeah, not good of them to remove such a major feature if it was there before. Why did you lose email for domain? It seems like I still have this option for the domain on DreamCloud (although I also still use their shared hosting).
