I think they haven't blocked twitter just because they don't know about it. I was hoping to find an http workaround in order to be able to get my mail at work. Currently I get my mail at home and then read it at work. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/000c01c97265$1f1e90d0$5d5bb2...@com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
