The track record of dialup mail for me is that it's all spam.  So
every time I get one, I automatically use tcpserver to block the
dialup bank it came from.  I don't use DUL because ORBS, which I have
used and will use again once it's visible from here again, caused me
enough trouble tunneling machines we need to get mail fromthrough the
ORBS block.  So I take out those dialup banks that have spammed me
once at the tcpserver level.

If that's "prejudice", I don't apologize for it.  I'm not going to let
you dictate what policies I impose on this end on any of my machines
by politically correct insults.  I will do what I can to accomodate
the few users I have on this end, but so far that's been just to tell
them to use the SMTP server of their provider.
