I'd love to give this a try for my mail server that is currently hosted on Linode. Half the price would be great.

Does anyone have experience with how "clean" the AWS IP addresses are? I'd hate to switch to Lightsail and have to deal with deliverability and spam blacklist issues. I've been fortunate to have had zero issues on Linode.

I just ran a few of my IP's through http://www.anti-abuse.org/multi-rbl-check/ and didn't get any hits. It's likely luck of the draw.

That said, you have to ask them to remove their port 25 throttle and set rDNS: https://aws.amazon.com/forms/ec2-email-limit-rdns-request

I think your IP address issue can be an issue to any hosting provider. I have experienced that issue with a VPS from SiteGround. May I know what mail server do you install on Linode server?

postfix with dovecot, dspam, and postgrey
