In most of the US, the standard residential ISP service gives you - some amount of bandwidth, usually asynchronous - dynamic IP address (with static available for a higher price) - some service quality and repair speed guarantees - many ISPs, especially cable modem, have annoying policies that say you can't run a server at home. But many don't. - some ISPs are starting to get the idea tha Most of the ISPs that provide that kind of service offer business service using the residential technology - higher price - better service quality and repair speed guarantees - static IP addresses, and you can run a server -- ---- Thanks; Bill Note that this isn't my regular email account - It's still experimental so far. And Google probably logs and indexes everything you send it.
