After several (about 10) unsucessful tries (engaged), chat consistantly refuses to rediail my ISP. In syslog, I get:

Does anyone know how to make chat stop thinking that provider is BLAKCLISTED? Yes, I should get a real ISP, but that's not possible in this country (all the others make me pay telephone chageres). (Another silly thing is that, once any phone number is blacklisted, every phone number after that is blakclisted too. So, to change ISP, I actually have to reboot!) Thanks, -- joostje
