I want to develop a email provider website like yahoo, gmail, hotmail..etc
so tell me which server should i use?
What is the cost of setup?
what other essential require to build such site?
very good idea. not too difficult, but need only a little money to buy one or saveral servers and apply a relay to your servers, set up a SMPT protocol. then tell people your IP and then we can apply a free email from your server. how mush will you invest in?
The Question is almost certainly one of the many "questions" being asked by a so-called "Guest" who is not intending to return here for any real advice, but just presents poorly thought out Questions, or ones which make no proper sense.
The lack of even basic research as shown by the Question makes me certain of this.
The "Guest" wants to have an Email system similar to <"....yahoo, gmail, hotmail...."> and the investment by each of those three free Email providors would now truly run into the $$$ Billions by now.
That's why without much more than "A Few Servers....etc", no Company could now be set up which will be ever able to compete with "The big three".
Kind Regards....

I really not make a kidding, no sarcasm else. I hope just to say he can complete this function if he pay a money to buy a server and apply a relay to get a fix IP address. install some software and protocle in order that he can do what the big 3 providers do. All this neednt too much. I cn guess he has a strong financial sponsor. in fact, you cannt imagine any people do wht you are curious. they can collect much money easily and do what they hope to do. I was told not long before two sisters get more than 0.1 billion dollars to open a web site. I cann do that, but I can only offer some idea to those who need tech support.
As matter of fact, thousands of billion do a thing, a million can do as well. the different is only scale and extend. In fact, in my web site, I can also provide up to 20--50 email boxes to staff. each has 1 -- 20MB capcitance, or more. enough.
Are you agree with me?
