Scott, I never recommended wholesale blocking of all DSL lines. In fact, I even stated that I myself used an SDSL line! See Mike K's well written response to your post. He hit the nail on the head. You are putting words in my mouth that I never used, nor would I use. This is about RDNS/IP issues, not the method of transport itself, although I still question one's ability to manage a stable mail server on an ADSL connection. Quite honestly, if a commercial ADSL line is set up and labeled properly, I would never know whether it was ADSL, a T1 or an OC3.
