Why should ISPs still pay to support subscriber e-mail either inhouse
or outsourced, any more than paying to support USENET, Chat, FTP/HTTP
Hosting, etc? Let subscribers choose whichever "free" or "fee-based"
supplier, and wash your hands of both the support issues and the legal
compliance
The discussion started out regarding an IP-over-cable ISP. Please
point me at places where there is significant *real* competition (i.e.
addresses that have more than one copper cable-TV line running into the

There are a number of cable overbuilders out there. Knology,

1. Gathering our current traffic patterns and subtotalling

Flowscan will do this. Origin and path.

What security risk does TFTP pose that isn't also shared by

Not security of the protocol necessarily, but you will find that TFTP is
