        This seems like a good time to remind everyone on this list about  
Derek's contribution to making this list possible. As many of you  
know, I run my server from the RoadRunner account for my home, which  
means that I have an IP address in the range reserved for dynamic  
addresses. Many ISPs block spam from these know dynamic ranges, on  
the assumption that such addresses should be sending mail through  
their ISP's server and not directly. However, RoadRunner limits  
outgoing messages from any address to about a thousand a day, which  
is more than enough for most, but would be about 3 postings a day for  
ProFox!

        The solution that I've used for the past few years has been to route  
mail to addresses whose ISPs block dynamic ranges through a server  
with a fixed IP address. Derek has been generous enough to provide  
his server at sensiblesoftware.com for this purpose; without this,  
most of you could not receive ProFox. So take a second to look at  
your email headers, and if you see an entry for  
'suggs.sensiblesoftware.com' in there, be sure to thank Derek for  
contributing to the community!
