Tony,
BGP is helpful for email servers if you own your own clean IP space, because much cloud IP space is black listed.

They have yearly black Friday specials (last years - https://www.racknerd.com/BlackFriday/ ) that are very attractive. They don't block any ports on their US/Europe VM's. I use a primary pair in one city and rsync everything to a backup pair in another city (as well as home just to make sure). Not all cities can get V6 but most do.
