Information is only sent to keen web surfers who like frames, who stumble across the places where three email addresses can be nominated for forwarding traffic stats, outage, and billing information.

There are people you can email. I had one written down once. Finding them is much more of a challenge. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
