Email/Web stress
Due to a whole variety of issues the lovely people currently running BITS (who despite my having not been their President, or resident at the university for a number of years now, I'm still leeching hosting off of) have been having some issues lately. Mostly because some f*ckwit didn't update their copy of PhpBB (and then some other unmentionable exploited the security holes in said), but that's beside the point. In short, they've just switched over to the new, updated and hopefully more secure server (well, it's now running Debian and the procedures are certainly more secure), but due to a number of problems with the switchover I was without email these past couple of days. I've just gotten about ~130 emails popping up this evening, and I think I'm missing a few, so if you sent me anything important recently, or if you've commented on something you think I should have seen the email notification for, then tell me now.
In related news, I'm looking for a new web/email host.... unfortunately, my requirements are somewhat expensive and hence why I've stuck with BITS so far. If anyone can tell me how to get ~500mb of storage (not much bandwidth needed, but lots of stored photos that I like to have access to), IMAP, PHP and a database (preferably MySQL, as otherwise I'll need to rewrite things), without having to pay an arm and a leg, then I would be most grateful. SSH access (so I can run the spam filter I like) would also be very nice.

Have a debian server in a datacenter with everything you've requested on.
500MB maybe a bit much but I'll double check with the sysadmins.

Give me a shout early next year and I'll see what I can do.
BTW. Are you in UK for holiday period at all?
no subject
In UK from 22/12 - 8/1. Where is another matter... in London until at least the 28th, but would like to come up to bris for new years. Depends of course on everyone else....

Will give you a shout.
Still using BITS email?
I still have the same mobile number.
