Hi dean,

Are you still recommend DreamHost?

I surf through the DreamHost forum and found that quite a lot of problem with their email posted by others

And I saw a message that hourly sending limit is 200 email.

Can you give some advice or sugggestion?

I plan to change host.

DreamHost recommends 500-1000 emails per hour.  I'm making contact with them again regarding their policy.  From their previous replies, they state that they route ALL email from ALL servers through a single point, and this is the reason large ListMail queues slow things down for other users.  I am trying to get them to be more supportive of list email because they are such a decent host - am actually awaiting a new reply from tech support.

If you have a reasonable list under 10,000 I still recommend DreamHost and will do a free install if you sign up as my referral.

Alternately, there's space on one of my own email-friendly dedicated servers starting at $15/mo for under 10,000 users.  Email me if you're interested.

I no longer recommend DreamHost.

Web hosts are being analyzed and reviewed - please post your recent experience if your host is not listed already!
