If that's the article I think it is, there's a lot of truth in it. I ran my 
own mail server for about 5 years back in the 2000s, and it was manageable. 
Trying to send mail from an ISP's IP block or a VPS nowadays is a pain, and 
getting your IPs off of blacklists is extremely difficult.

I've resorted to using a web host to forward mail to gmail. It's not the 
same as having mail hosted locally and running my own SPAM filters and 
procmail.
