Greetings! I am a U.S. magazine business magazine reporter based in Paris, and I'm working on a story about Wanadoo.
In the course of my research, I've become aware of the fact that Wanadoo was in a lot of hot water about 18 months ago because the wanadoo.fr domain was being used as the origin of a lot of hack attacks and spam. The company seemed unresponsive at the time to requests to clean up its act, and as a result, the entire domain was blocked by some ISPs. I'm wondering whether things have gotten better since then. I still hear stories about people not being able to send e-mail from their Wanadoo accounts, and I personally have experienced being turned away from web sites when I try to access them from my Wanadoo address. I don't know whether the company has made an effort to turn this situation around or is just turning a blind eye. My curiousity is anecdotal--a reality check, if you will--but I'd also love to hear anything quantitative you can throw my way. Please let me know if you'd rather not be quoted directly. I will honor whatever terms you establish. Thanks in advance for your help. Andy Reinhardt
