I reckon they'll have to leave all the @bellsouth.net email addresses in place as long as the subscriber keeps it right?

I would imagine so. We still have folks out here that are using the pacbell.net domain.

Most likely. AT$T did this with sbcglobal.net my cousins just signed up with DSL and they were given @att.net email addresses. Same everything except the email and the software packaging to sign up was changed to reflect AT$T

They should. There are some of us in the SNET territory (CT) that are still using an "@snet.net" address that we've had since pre-assimilation in 1998.

 So...

Now that AT&T Southeast, formerly Bellsouth, is now under the AT&T TOS, all server restrictions are lifted. So if we want to host our "personal" web page from home we can.

I need to add that if a customer wishes to do this and has a "Residential" or "Business w/ Dynamic IP" connection they need to use something like DynDNS. Look up "DDNS" or "Dynamic DNS."

This is because such connections use dynamic IPs, which change sometimes and makes it harder to find the PC on the Internet. DDNS solves this problem by updating the records as the IP address changes, so that www.somewebsite.com will still point to the PC.

I had to mention this for those who might not already know.

It's going to take a long time to get the pricing the same. All of the rates tariff's need to be approved. They really have to fight the PUC's to get those lower rates in place!

Am I suppose to read my bellsouth email?

I haven't read my bellsouth e-mail address in several months. Are they going to send out a snail mail for the majority of us that don't even use it except as a login name?

Thanks DSLR for the update.

Apparently not. I just logged into my webmail and had zero emails.

AFAIK, DSL is not regulated by the PUCs. It certainly did not take a lot of fighting to set the national prices across the old Ameritech, Pacific Telesis, Southern New England Telephone, and Southwestern Bell Telephone regions; the former SBC which bought AT&T.

P.S. The $10 DSL offer has been available in San Jose, California for some time, now.

They certainly left the other domains alone after SBC consolidated Ameritech, Pacific Telesis, Prodigy, Southern New England Telephone and Southwestern Bell Telephone under the SBC brand:

•ameritech.net
•flash.net
•nvbell.net
•pacbell.net
•prodigy.net
•sbcglobal.net
•snet.net
•swbell.net
•wans.net

Check in again, after Oct. 22, and tell us what you see.

Really? WHY? You still can't get it as you are in a Verizon service area. The former Bellsouth area already gets the $10.00 DSL Lite service.

The only thing...

...they need to do on the website is fix their abhorrent bill payment/account maintenance area.

Slow, times out, have to go try to submit my payment 2 or 3x every month before it works.

Really pathetic.

uverse in southeast was announced yesterday

I know DSLreports hates to publish any postive news about At&t, but it was announced yesterday that At&t plans to spend almost 2 billion in that territory to bring u-verse.
see quote below

AT&T Brings U-verse to the Southeast — AT&T plans to bring 1,000 jobs to the Southeast in the next year to roll out its U-verse TV service. AT&T plans to spend $1.85 billion updating its broadband infrastructure, in part to make U-verse available to homes in Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida. The service would enter homes through newly installed digital lines that are similar to, but separate from, Internet service lines. The service will be offered to some consumers in Atlanta later this year in a limited rollout, said an AT&T spokesman. The expansion will continue gradually in 2008 as the service becomes available neighborhood by neighborhood. Atlanta Journal-Constitution, online.
