Most cheap ISPs only support a limited subset of languages and/or frameworks, typically <a href="http://ASP.NET">ASP.NET</a>, PHP, or Java. Some ISPs will also dictate other choices, such as using a particular web server (Apache, Tomcat, IIS, etc.), or a particular DB such as MySQL, MS SQL, or PosgreSQL. On the more expensive end of choices you have dedicated servers or private virtual servers, where you have complete control over what you run and it's up to you to configure the services you want. The downside to private virtual servers is that they typically have fairly strict resources limits, such as 300M of RAM, or 5G of storage. Finally, the most expensive option is a co-location facility that will plug your server into their network and provide you backbone access, but which allows you to not only control what software you run, but also the hardware that it runs on.<br> <br>At this time, I know of no ISP that directly supports Haskell, in particular Happs, Yesod, or Snap, so if you want to run any of those you'll have to go with a dedicated server, or a virtual server. As for sending e-mail, and language should be able to send e-mail if you have a properly configured mail server that it can connect to, but the details of how to configure that are a bit much to put into an e-mail.<br> <br>If you want to play around with Yesod, I and a couple other people are using slicehost to run various Haskell based webapps (under a variety of frameworks), but be aware that it's more expensive than a lot of cheap hosts (~$20 a month for a basic server with 256M of RAM), and you'll be responsible for administering your own server, as well as having to work within the limited resources provided.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Other than slicehost, here are some more VPS hosting options, in USA.</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', Helvetica, sans-serif;
