Server move
The server move is complete!. I have moved all my .no domains and my email/blog hosting to a new server due to extremely slow support from the Norwegian host I had. 4 working days just to upgrade an account and to register a few new .no domains is a bit much, even for me.
Kind of sad to leave them actually. Been with them since 1999, and never had any downtime with them, except from the scheduled maintenance 1-2 times a year for major upgrades etc, but even then the downtime was at offpeak hours and minimal.
But I have found a nice new host for my .no domains and my main work/private mail. Sofar it’s extremely fast on server response times. The support is immaculate and fast. 5-15 min in work hours, and maybe a couple of hours during evening and weekends.
I don’t often require support, but when I do, I prefer not to sit around for weeks just to get some plain answers.
Biggest trouble with moving host is my insanely large IMAP mailbox, almost 20.000 mails (I haven’t archived any for almost a year now). The size is around 300mb, and all attachments are moved to my webdisk instead. Going to do some major mail sorting this weekend and archive most of it. Then start mostly fresh with the server move. I have to re-upload lots of email to the new IMAP, but the size should be significant lower.
