The same Russian company has also English-language website, you can choose server in USA (NAC MMU datacenter near NYC) or Russia. I use their cheapest VPS option (now $4.95/month) since 2008. It's a jail under FreeBSD with limited resources (RAM 64M, swap 128M, disk 5 GB, traffic 100 GB/month, one IPv4 IP-address). Kernel RAM and preinstalled packages aren't counted in these limits. If you use this link for ordering then both you and me get a discount: http://joinvps.com/?from=33485 In my VPS (jail) I installed (from ports) `mathopd` web-server and Exim instead of default Apache and sendmail. My Exim config including all the spam-filtering: https://github.com/Exim/exim/wiki/LenasConfig Lena
