These are crimminal statues, and apply to "providers of wire communications services". Read these: Definitions: (Wire communications) http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/18/2510.shtml Interception and disclosure of wire, oral, or electronic communications prohibited: http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/18/2511.shtml If you operate a service available to the public, the rules are much different than if you operate a private company's internal mail system. So far as I know, these laws haven't been repealed. But cornell says they use the January '96 CD. Maybe they have been repealed. If you're not a provider of wire communication services according to the definitions, they don't apply. Anyway, my original point was to explain why the FBI is unresponsive to DoS reports. I think we can stop insisting that "these laws don't apply to me". Maybe they don't. If not, then don't worry. --Dean ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Plain Aviation, Inc [email protected] LAN/WAN/UNIX/NT/TCPIP http://www.av8.com ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
