Richard And List, You are not required, as I mistakenly said in my earlier post, to add a new service. Adding a new service is just an option, especially if you will be traveling to a partticular destination more than once. For example, I set up a second service so that I can quickly retrieve my e-mail from work, which is in another state and area code, and requires a 89 for an outside line. It is faster and less error prone to use a service called Earthlink From work, than to change the telephone number every day when I retrieve my e-mail from work. Then at home, I select the service called Earthlink At Home to retrieve my e-mail from home.
