-----Original Message----- From: Robert Blayzor [mailto:rblayzor () inoc net] Subject: RE: IETF SMTP Working Group Proposal at smtpng.orgI'm not a company, I'm Joe Blow private citizen - do youexpect me topay $100 just to sign up with AOL?If you are Joe Blow private citizen, why would you need to run a mail server? Would you not use your ISP's, at least as a smart relay?
Because he doesn't want to. He already provides POP3/SMTP services to me under his own domain name, and why should he change his servers to permit me to send mail as if from another domain where I do have a "real" mail account? I hate the free stuff (no POP3/SMTP unless you pay), I already have my own on another domain (for which I pay), and I don't want his (because I don't want to keep changing email addresses everytime they get bought out/sold). In short, because if I have to depend on my ISP for my convenience, it won't get done, unless it's done their way. I use it for outbound only, I pop my mail from my other provider... James H. Smith II Speaking for myself...
