I have been a customer of Software Tool and Die since 1991. Their domain name is std.com and world.std.com became so much more recognizable as a reference to their online offerings that they started to refer to themselves as The World. They're the oldest public UNIX dialup service and for a long time I've been a satisfied customer. I am therefore sorry to have to say that I cannot recommend STD to anyone, and in fact I am in the process of becoming an ex-customer. The issue is email; STD have put an unacceptably aggressive SPAM-filtering system in place. All I ask of STD is that they forward my email to my "real" ISP - all of it, if you please. I'm sympathetic about their SPAM problem and wouldn't mind their anti-SPAM efforts but they're being truly hamfisted about it - they are discarding legitimate emails while still allowing plenty of SPAM. The most painful part of this is that, although STD have in the past been incredibly responsive and professional about customer-service matters, their attitude in this case can best be visualized as a middle finger lifted in your general direction. I have other complaints, too (like why did STD suddenly start auto-mangling my inbound messages, converting them to MIME without so much as a by-your-leave when for the last 10 years they left my messages blissfully unmolested?) but they're minor by comparison. _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
