No, it's not a problem. Your ISP is registered with the registrar. They can simply list your IP you've been assigned as a valid mail server. They then accept responsibility for your mail server registration. > I DO understand the reasoning, but it is a **BIG** culture change, and > would take a year or two or more to implement network wide. That I would agree. No disputing that. But at the same time, everyone agrees that SOMETHING needs to be done. Regardless of what is done, it will be a big change. > I think $100/year is STEEP, if it is PER SERVER, but per > COMPANY/INDIVIDUAL it **might** be acceptable. No, per company. Not per server. Per server would be a bit extreme. Especially for those that have dozens of legit mail servers. As a service provider you pay $100 a year for your account, in which you can manage adding and removing mail server IP addresses from the list. But only IP's that are in your SWIP'd space. > Ideas given this? Above. Thanks for your input. -- Robert Blayzor, BOFH INOC, LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED] Your mouse has moved.
