- Some tips for VPS requirements: please note that full e-mail server stack needs at least 3 GB RAM to run smoothly. There is no need to splash out on NVME SSD storage as the primary Email server bottleneck is imposed by it's internet uplink speeds. A typical 1 Gbps connection offered by most datacentres translates in about 125 MBps that corresponds to normal i/o speed of modern HDD drives.
