Have a look at the messages the Dingo Blue pop server sends when you
collect mail:
[tom@localhost tom]$ telnet mail.dingoblue.net.au 110
Trying 203.2.75.133...
Connected to mail.optusnet.com.au.

+OK Was it as good for you, as it was for me? (clean as a baby)
Connection closed by foreign host.
Now see, this is a *sensible* reason to choose an ISP. The decision
should be based on the humour displayed in such messages. Never go for
an ISP whose pop server just says goodbye in Japanese when you quit,
that would be a bad mistake. :-)
