I use zoneedit also, and intend to leave my DNS there. Somehow I'm more comfortable not having all my services in one basket, and zoneedit has, so far (several years now) been 100% reliable (well, probably not, but I've never noticed an outage, which is what counts :-)).


That's true.. I've had absolutely no problems with zoneedit at all. Their site just seems a little hacked together; for some reason that bothers me.

However, w.r.t. your e-mail, that's independent of your DNS service. Setting up postfix on your linode server to route all your mail to your gmail account would be easy.


I used to run a mail server, but I found it took up too much memory. That was a few memory upgrades ago though, so maybe it'd be different now. Maybe I'll try it again sometime.

I've not had any memory problems running postfix and postgrey, but I don't get a lot of mail (a few hundred a day, mostly mailling lists). Of course, I don't run spam filtering on my linode, but at home. With the recent memory upgrades I've thought about trying Spamassassin on the linode, but haven't yet taken the time.

Since you're forwarding to gmail, there's no point in running anything except greylisting and SPF on your linode, which shouldn't be a problem.
