I didn't realize they were a spammers heaven when I signed up, I was LEAVING a hosting service that had issue with my ISP blocking my domain email.. ( long story, can you say AT&T?). paulandcilla.homelinux.org is my dyndns domain with a static IP. obviously I couldn't fill in my postfix info with my domain info, because I am NOT the host. ALL I wanted to do was setup a local IMAP server so I could use fetchmail to pull in my domain email to debian, and be able to also get to it via IMAP from my ( and my wifes) laptops, here locally, in my local subdomain ( and maybe later from the real outside public world..). my domain email is ONLY for me & my wife ( kids too..), I've had it for 10+ years, almost as long as my yahoo account.
