After going through a couple of small ISPs I wound up at surfnaked.ca - who could resist an e-mail address like that? Through various acquisitions it would up belonging to Uniserve, but they were wise enough to retain the original domain name in addition to their own. I wouldn't want to go to a huge conglomerate like gmail, for various reasons that others have already mentioned - plus the fact that staying with a smaller independent provider is more in keeping with the original spirit of the Internet. When I went DSL I signed up with Telus (the local telco); I could receive e-mail through them, but I hung on to my surfnaked account and just use Telus's SMTP server for posting. -- /~\ cgibbs@kltpzyxm.invalid (Charlie Gibbs) \ / I'm really at ac.dekanfrus if you read it the right way.
