Since AoL is FREE (you only pay if you want to use them as your connectivity provider) as well as the Email being accessable via WebMail or IMAP (and POP) with SMTP Servers to send email, you can use ANY ISP for connectivity to your AoL Email without needing to use AoL as your connectivity provider (or even use the AoL software in Location=TCP mode).

I also agree that Business related Email should have been handled via a Private Domain ($10/year or less) with under $44/year Hosting (email hosting can be gotten for your private domain in the $10-15/year range I think). | |

Why take everything into the court or to DC? What happens if I don't like someone's Christmas decorations, should I always run to the government and petition them to stop it?
EVERYONE is not going to always agree - EVER. But, simply because we don't agree doesn't give us the right to sue or petition or legalize/or illegalize everything to get our own way.
In this story at hand, this is a pure example of 1) a possible mistake, 2) poor planning on the part of the AOL customer, 3) see #2.
Personal responsibility is at play here.
ANYONE who says email is the sole conduit for their business is a fool for a business owner. Her email couldn't have been THAT important to her in the first place. How long was it down for? If it's so important, she would have been sitting on that email all day long checking it. When it went down, why didn't she contact AOL?
ANYONE that has ever had AOL knows one thing - if your service is discontinued, all you have to do is simply sign back in and it will ask you to re-activate your account.
How could this person have lost so much revenue? Was it down for days? Then her email couldn't have been that important - I would have had it back up and running quickly. Or, she really doesn't use her email that much, the business is failing and she is looking for another revenue source ...
This story reminds me of the handicap person that goes up and down a street in their wheelchair looking for businesses with out handicap accessible restrooms and then suing them for damages... businesses that they never even patronize in the first place.
Forwarding email is simple... keep the account active for a few months longer and then tell everyone. Why should an ISP have to burden the cost of the forwarding anyway? Most people here should know that there are a lot of wasted resourced on the part of ISPs with user account email boxes sitting at MAX quota because boxes are created, never used, and then fill up taking up disk space.
I agree with TCH - if you are running a business, get a domain and own your own services.. it's under $100 a month AND it is FAR more professional than doing business as "@AOL.COM" , "Yahoo" or "Hotmail" - to which I would NEVER do business with those people anyway.. it tends to lend to their abilities in the first place. -- "Complaining is the least path of resistance for the self-serving, the lazy, and Im told its a womans prerogative..." | |

Government shouldn't be involved in the day to day activities of a company, or of its people. The FCC shouldn't be mandating what an ISP does with an email address of a customer who no longer pays for their service.
If a person is running a business, then they shouldn't be using an @aol.com email, or any ISP email. They should have their own domain. In fact, I would even extend that to everyone; everyone should have their own domain instead of relying on their ISPs email address.

As far as I'm concerned, if you don't like what the company has to offer as far as contracts go, just don't use them.

What we don't need is government getting in to the business of deciding how an ISP runs their business on a day to day basis and how they manage email access. I agree. If you're not capibile of migrating your personal e-mail from one ISP to another, then you really shouldn't be on the computer in the first place. We used to have e-mail from our ISP, but I grew tired of it, and several years ago, I switched everyone (mom, pops, brother, grandfather, myself) to e-mail accounts on my own domain.
I setup the accounts, configured them in Outlook, and gave them 3 months notice to tell family, friends, financial institutions, mailing lists, etc. of their new address. Everything worked great.
If you're a business - and you don't have your own domain name w/ your own email such as name@companyname.com , then I suggest you revaluate your business plan.
Getting the government in here to regulate e-mail like this is something I don't think we need.

| Agreed. And, here is another thing that many people don't think about when they cry for uncle sam to bail them out of their own ignorance.
1) Uncle Sam NEVER makes anything simple. They will attempt to attach a ton of garbage to any law they enact.
2) While it may work for a small few ignorant people today, what happens in 10 years when technology has changed and this is all long forgotten? I'll tell ya.. some fresh out of law school idiot attorney will find this now outdated law, have some person agenda to meet (paycheck anyone?) and then start sticking it to ISPs to show everyone what a good attorney he is.
Or, simply put, as usual, outdated laws WILL come back to haunt us all.
There are enough outdated laws on the books that end up biting us in the ass years from now because law makers never clean house - they are, however, good at just making new laws.
The "you must wear a hat to cross the street on a Sunday" law of 1860 has been abused by an over eager Sheriff before in order to take someone in who he had a beef with and wanted a reason to arrest before. (example - but true)
Private industry, in most cases, along with change and society in general, tends to take care of things just fine on their own with out Uncle Sam getting involved. -- "Complaining is the least path of resistance for the self-serving, the lazy, and Im told its a womans prerogative..." | |

| Absolutely ridiculous, these people! Why do we need the government to step in and regulate for something people ought to bloody well do for themselves. There is already such a thing as email-forwarding. And as a so-called business executive she made the poor choice of not following up on her own work and insuring the necessary documents were sent/received, so she would lose money or profit or whatever she's bellyaching about. if something like that was important to me I'd double check, no, TRIPLE check to make sure it's working.. Or in having a back up email account/domain server or as many others have said. Yes AOL may have screwed up....but you know what? So could ANY OTHER provider. I would really like to know what she does so I can stand over her shoulder and sue her whenever she messes up on the job. Absolutely ridiculous. | |

| as much as i think certain businesses need more regulation, E-Mail should be your job to handle. first off if you run a business online get a domain(they dont cost that much)second if you dont want to get a domain get a non locational email address with a service like Google's Gmail. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports | |
