Thanks for the tip off. Anyone else had good experiences with netscape.net, good or bad? Thanks for all your help.

Netscape.net's mail is handled by AOL servers. I know they used to be a tad unreliable, but I don't recall seeing problems out of them for some time.

The main problem seemed to be that iname periodically forgot its list of domains and started claiming it was a relay. I haven't seen AOL do that. Hotmail is the only completely unreliable server I've seen lately. The others (chiefly Yahoo and sometimes iname-served ones) have occasional delays, but no rejections. (The delays could conceivably be up to four days or whatever our timeout is (Carl?), though. But I don't think they've been quite that bad, even Yahoo... less than 24.) -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Listowner tools are found at http://www.phoenyx.net/listowners
