10 GB email storage? 500 MB attachements? Do they mean 10 MB storage and 500 KB attachements?

That alone makes it look fishy.

10GB isn't totally out of the question. gmail is offering 2GB+, and storage is cheap. But then again, if they have any decent number of users, with 10GB of email storage, people will just leave mail on the server...(not sure if they use pop3 or imap), they'll need TB storage just for mail. Do they have a SAN/NAS for the mail spool.

I agree 500MB attachments is ridiculous. I'm sure quite a few mail systems limit the message size to something like 25MB or even 10MB.

Storage is cheap, and it will only get cheaper by the end of the year. Hitachi to slated to release 1TB hard drives, tho someone showed me a link to a no-name company who is making 2TB drives that you can buy right now.

CookieKid, do let us know how things go. I would assume there be some delay in the switch from Telus to Acanac with Telus on strike. If Acanac can deliver on their claims, there could be a following of lemmings.

I'm stuck in a RPP for a few more months too. I had been thinking about getting Shaw in at least temporarily when I decide to make an ADSL change.

If you're having line issues, it won't help you if you switch to another ISP. What issue are you having? Speed? Thats likely related to line problems or distance issues, none of which will change if you switch ISP.
