Yeah, forgot about Google, but Google requires GOOGLE.COM for all e-mail
addresses.  MS now allows the use of any domain name!

Don't forget about Google's offering as well.

        OK List;
        
        We've all got some new competition as of today.  Microsoft just
opened the
        doors to Microsoft Office Live, a web based product that gives our
customers
        a website and up to 50 e-mail accounts AT NO COST, during the "beta"
period.
        They also offer full collaboration of contacts, file sharing, secure
areas,
        50 MB of web site storage, 25 GB of data transfer each month, daily
backup,
        and a full interact with Outlook 2000 and higher.
        
        After the beta period, this will cost $29.95 per month.
        
        There are lesser services that will remain perpetually free.
        
        Time for Ipswich and Imail to get their act together and get an
actual
        WORKING 2006 version of Imail working and into our hands.  It needs
to have
        EXCELLENT security - none of this everyone gets FULL access to all
        directories - the just doesn't fly in my book and we're waiting to
see what
        happens with the next release before we decide on what to do.
        
        Note to Imail tech support: Thanks for the invite to participate in
the
        webinar, but I have 4 surgery centers to get updates completed on by
the end
        of the month and they come first.  Because a software vendor
collaborated
        with a Medicare billing agent, the centers can't bill until I have
all the
        software, servers, databases and workstations updated.  They just
notified
        us last week that they were going to move the deadline up from
October, 2006
        to the beginning of last week.  That amounts to about 100K PER DAY
in
        accounts receivable that are just sitting there, not billed, until
I'm done.
