 ni> Have you seen prices less then $5 a month? and more ?

My server costs me much more than that.  However, I have a server that is probably more server than just a simple BBS would need.  I have dedicated 4 cores, 8gb RAM, 250gb SSD storage, snapshot backups.  They also allow me to request to edit the reverse IP for my IP address so it matches my domain name settings for sending email out. If you want to be able to send emails out from a self hosted email server, you need to make sure not to get a VPS provider that has IP's blocked by gmail, hotmail, etc.  This can happen often to some of the big guys because of people using them to run spam. I get almost instant support response when I need things looked into as well, 24 hours a day.
