Generally my naive idea was to extract somehow the _name_ of the provider and personally I didn't think about to use the IPs. To be honest I have even no idea, if my friend uses few free providers, how different their IPs are... e.g. earlier I had Hungarian freemail and freeweb dial-up and there was time when they used the same range of dynamic IPs, but the first supposed to provide exclusively SMTP/POP access and the later one "only" internet... I think the best will be to wait until I travel back to Budapest to have a look on his settings personally.
