Re: Port abuse is BS!

After reviewing the AUP , if its for your own personal use, and not for everyone(ie public) then its not against the AUP.
Definitely a case for someone so included to bring a lawyer into it ( not me, I have better things to do with my money )

Anywho, a buddy of mine with an exchange server migrated his mail over to a hosting company, and then uses a 3rd party tool to check his mail and pull it down locally.

It more than tripled the amount of traffic on the Insight network ( it checks the account every few minutes and pops anything down ) but its not in violation of the AUP policy.

Insight isn't exactly the brightest ISP on the block, but hey whatever floats their boat.

I have my friend at Insight looking into this with me with TSG and the help desk.

I'm also curious as to what the difference is between "running a server" and having something up for personal use only.
