Thanks for these details.
For the sake of further exploration, is there a Linux command that will
share all the packages currently in use on a server?
I have entirely too many things I do professionally with my email,
including filtering items into folders to use anything like fastmail.
I do currently ssh into other shells as I said, but must visit shellworld
first to do this much.
Still, if creating shellworld 2 might be possible even on a dedicated
machine, it might be worth exploring.
I have 54 gig of data in my main shellworld account alone, 6 gig for my
personal website..cannot imagine another shared hosting service giving me
that kind of room, but might be wrong.
