These national ISP, such as FreeWWWeb, rent or lease their POPs
(Point Of Presence) numbers from companies such as UUNET. That is why
you need to login with your username and domain name (i.e.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]) so that UUNET can connect you to the proper
server. My local dialup number for FreeWWWeb is the same one I use
for Juno Mail.
