That's some pretty good scar tissue right there! I still run my own server, control my own DNS, etc... It can be a real pain sometimes. So, I moved cuthrell.com to Pair (pair.com) then tried living by their hosting rules thinking the burden of maintenance would be shifted to them. That lasted for about a year and having to do manual updates for WP ugprades sucked. I like pressing buttons and having the magic happen. So, now I've moved cuthrell.com back from Pair back to my own server and I can do button press upgrades. You do get control with your own server but you get all the headaches too. Hard drive crashes, backups, etc... but I'm still glad I moved all email functions to Google Apps. Is Google Apps perfect? No, but it's better than the thrashing I was doing prior. Email and fighting (spy vs. spy) spam has zero appeal to me <i>personally</i> for the few domains I handle <i>personally</i>. That's paying gig skills ;-) Awesome writeup!
