| Re: Internet access -- sort of ... email is and has been, and should always be considered a "best effort" system, in other words, the cooperating networks of the internet will make a best effort to get your email to its destination, but there is no guarantee. If you are sending something truly important where delivery is essential, send it via FAX, telephone or FEDEX (or UPS if you want them to drop kick it across the country first).... | |

| Re: Internet access -- sort of ... I think my ISP does a good job because they do a combination of both. They let everything through, but pre-tag the email with spam-high, spam-medium, spam-low. That way I can easily configure filters. If they mis-tag an email no big deal, because I still get it, and alter my filters for it. | |

I just wonder how AOL subscribers will feel when they find that their favorite newsletter is discarded because the sender didn't pay AOL a fee to let it through. | |
