We think he's back on the list using another username, now. :-)
I think he subbed to the list and took us too serious. This list was

our free remote pop3 services.

Now cut that out. I was just teasing you that time. :-)
I'm sure you have all the poop we need to set this up. I'll try to get
a chance later to play with this Swiss account.
