Hmm.... Thinking out loud here... (is 4:30 AM) I wonder how many times this message will be sent. Otherwords one for each domain? Does this mean that I have to "opt-out" for each domain I have registered???? Yuk. Maybe a new field is needed when creating a domain, __ Check here to NOT receive anything except invoices from NSI Then the thought of complaining to [email protected] is not so good as that means more (non registeration based) email to be handled by the auto script stuff. Personally I would like to see NSI respond to this before I say one way or the other. RBL'ing NSI would cause some ops problems and they don't really need any more right now :) I personally don't want to receive anything from them EXCEPT invoice notifications, Update Changes, etc. If I want to purchase something or learn more about them, I'll surf their web site and maybe signup for their newsletter thingy. (Thats Opt-IN) I really hate having to "OPT-OUT" of something, its one more thing to do and I never know if it will really stick or not. I don't think I have a solid yes/no answer. I'll wait for NSI to respond. Chuck, David??????
