- Coolbeanstoo 2y agoIts quite a nice service. Host my own mail server quite happily on it. I don't have any anti incoming spam setup which is getting a little annoying though.
- b112 2y agoGreylisting helps a lot.
- SoftTalker 2y agoI ran OpenBSD on buyvm.net no issues. Never tried sending email from it so don't know what their IP reputation is like.

- jamesmotherway 2y agoBad actors frequently use BuyVM's services, also known as FranTech and Ponynet. Their popularity with Tor operators probably doesn't help how their network traffic is perceived either. As a result, organizations may handle traffic from their ASNs unfavorably. I don't have a personal opinion about the company; however, email is important enough that it's worth considering edge cases and future scenarios.
- ElectRabbit 2y agoI love BuyVM. But they host almost everything (as long it's not illegal). Being a neighbor to Tor exit nodes makes mail servers complicated.
