Also depends on how much clue said ISP has. I have a DSL-like connection at home from a large LEC/ISP, but half the time their mail server either doesn't respond or rejects me. If I was more concerned, I would just set up my own mail server here and be done with it. As it is, I use ssh/pine. But there's another good reason for customers to use their own mail server. Aaron
