I'm not looking for much, just an ISP who - Gives me a subdomain of their own domain, and delivers mail to it using SMTP (so I'm not paying them every time I want to set up a new mailbox) - Doesn't do anything that would prevent me running INN or C News locally, so I can read groups at my own pace and expiry times. - Offers 3 or 4 MB of web space for a reasonable price, lets me telnet and ftp to this web space, and has up to date copies of Perl available (anything after 5.00401). Oh, and has no silly restrictions like "You will use our mail script, our web hit counter script (ugh) and that's all"). Bonus points if they run FreeBSD, obviously. Any pointers gratefully received. To keep clutter down on the mailing lists I've set the reply-to to chat.
