If they *didn't* blacklist DSL/cable IPs then the amount of spam and the cost to handle it all increases. Ergo your bill goes up eventually. My cable provider's residential IPs are on several blacklists, I've set up SMTP forwarding to the ISP's servers and All Is Well. Yeah, it sucks that I can't send direct without fear of being dropped but for less than a couple of bucks a day I can't complain too loudly. -- Gordon Grieder Join us, get cracking! www.grub.net www.distributed.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
