Yes - Tiscali is my payg account, which I use for public facing communication. They are not bad, not particularly linux friendly, but supply enough info to do all the necessary. Mailbox - well we use the HomeWire 500 package, a wires only package. They will supply modem or router if you wish, but we chose to supply our own, and they were happy to support it, providing we allowed that they may not actually know the equipment. We chose an SMC, and got all the help we needed, and cheerfully. Basic package is 250kbs up and 500kbs down, contention 50:1. 20:1 is available, but much more expensive, of course. Maybe it's because it's early days, but contention has never given us problems. The basic package is one outward facing ip address, though more can be had (max. > 100, they say). Reading from the info I downloaded when we were assessing it they offer news server, games server, webmail. Domain registration to .co.uk or .org.uk with 25 Mb web space. Email is pop3, smtp and mx (whatever that is). Activation was £60 and monthly rental is £29, all plus vat. If it's of possible interest, check the website at mailbox.co.uk Anne
