Somehow, I just don't see the kill list rejecting any of these:
*.abo.wanadoo.fr
*.da.qwest.net
*-pool-*
*.dsl-verizon.net
*.dip.t-dialin.net
dialpool-*
*.client.comcast.net
dsl-*.mx
*.bct.bellsouth.net
*.dyn.optonline.net
dsl-*.br
*-*-*-*.client.mchsi.com
*-*-*-*.dsl.*.pacbell.net
*-*-*-*.dsl.*.ameritech.net
I've already tried setting them into the kill list as listed above. If there
is some other
special way of making it work, please, by all means, feel free to share with
me the secret.
