[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: I've been thinking I should write a note to those people and ask them how many netters take them up on their offer to 'rent their server' for direct mail purposes. If they can get $599 per customer/month it would pay me to discontinue this Digest and turn my computer totally into a 'bullet proof' direct spam -- err, I mean, mail server. Even just one customer per month would pay off better for me than this Digest does at $599 each. PAT]
