The people and addrs I process mail for all have the same domain but live in locations all around the globe (virtual company) 2. The domain should/must be the same as the company's web page (see my sig for addr) which is on a convention web hosting arrangement 3. As far I can all inbound/outbound smtp/http (25, 587, and 80) are blocked by the ISP (they offer them under a business package that also includes a static IP but currently that is too pricey) 4. The ISP is the only one in my area (semi-rural) that offers high speed bandwidth 5. Even though my web hoster offers mail forwarding it does not offer mail box and/or mailing list hosting (having prepaid for 2 years and only being 2 months into the deal I am not going to switch providers) - -- Aryeh M.
