No intrusion. This is an open discussion. One is a service that the Registry supplies. You do not have to be in a business relationship with any particular hosting company or reseller.
The other is a business relationship between your reseller or hosting company and you. Is there a big difference? No, but I would like to know that if I change domain registration companies or hosting companies that my email forwarding will continue to work. If this is a service of my hosting or registration company, I now have to set this up with another company should I move my domain registration or hosting. If the customer has "bought into" email for life forwarding services from the registry - as advertised on the Registry website - it is only honest business practices to tell him if you are selling him something else. I would have thought this concept was obvious - apparently not. -Tim > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Ross Wm.
