[cobalt-users] New to Internet servers

[alonsog@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,
I would like to know if there's an information resource available for new
or potential users of the Raq3. So far I've only found answers to more
specific, complex questions, but very little on the basic stuff for
beginners like me. I'm including a few questions that I have, please answer
them in basic terms.

I do a some web design on the side, and host about a dozen of my clients
sites with a hosting provider. I'm thinking of getting my own Raq3 and
co-locating it instead of leasing space. Here's the questions:

For economic reasons I'm considering a 32mb/8.4ZGb Raq3. Is this option
very limited? I plan to expand my client base to about 75-100 medium sites
with 25-50 email users each. please comment.

What are the advantages/disadvantages from IP based over Name based Sites?
is there a best choice? does it make a difference?

Who do you recomend for co-locating? 

I would eventually like to set up a free web based email system for a
medium sized city in mexico. Maybe about 1500 accounts to begin with. Would
the Raq3 be able to handle it? what do you recommend?

Thanks for your support, I will be sending more questions soon
