For the custom server setup, we will need 2 Dedicated servers and 13 domains with 60 additional IPs.
We will create 12 SMTPs with 60 IPs (5 IPs/STMPs) on 1 dedicated server for sending emails and another dedicated server will be used to host the mailing application.
Dedicated Server
The configuration of the Dedicated server should be as follows.
Processor: Intel Xeon E3-1230v6 - 4 c / 8 t - 3.5 GHz / 3.9 GHz
Memory: From 32GB
Disk: NVMe, SATA available
Root access should be needed for this server setup.
Any dedicated server will be okay for this server with the above configuration but we will suggest you take the OVH server since their servers are very economical.
Moreover, apart from cost the main reason for using is that the OVH is quite lenient toward bulk mailing compared to others, and also they are providing additional IPs without any justification, usually, the other providers may ask the purpose of additional IPs and they won't provide it for bulk mailing.
Please use the following link for purchasing the OVH server.
2 Dedicated Server Rise-1
Use the following configuration while ordering your server.
Click on Continue, and order your servers.
Kindly Note: You have to create your account in OVH first and please provide the correct details since they might ask for the government ID and address proof to verify your identity.
Domain
You can take any 13 (.com) domains for this server setup if you already have a spare domain so that we can use that one or else you can buy new domains from Godaddy.
Do not use your existing domain (on which your website is already running), since we need to use those domains in the server setup and also we need to install the web application on this new domain, so if any website will be running on it, will be affected by these changes.
Although you can use your existing domain while sending emails to your contacts list.
Additional IPs
A dedicated server comes with one default IP and we will need 60 additional IPs for this setup.
You can purchase additional IPs, once your OVH account will be set up by the OVH team.
OVH Control Panel –> IP Tab –> Order an IP.
You have to purchase a total of 60 IPs for your dedicated server.
After clicking on the next one order number will be generated. Click on that order and you can pay for the IPs there. Your IPs will be ready by the OVH team in a few hours.
Details Needed
We will need the following details for your server setup.
a) Domain control panel details: (Username and password)
b) OVH control panel details: (Username & password)
c) Root access to each of your servers.
