Hello Thomas & others on TBUDL following this thread, Wednesday, January 31, 2001, you stated regarding my saying that: >> I had trouble too at first w/ this send from my gmx account when >> using prodigy.net.mx (1 of the 2 ISP's I use at this location) but >> gmx is now one of my best (fastest and most reliable) T> Wow. For me, GMX has been fairly reliable, but I wouldn't call it T> fast. Talking about POP, as I use my ISP's SMTP server. Prodigy.net.mx is slower. The others are acnet.net (variable), operamail.com, newmail.net, mailandnews.com & subdimension.com. The last one fails most. The others are all pretty good, which is why I kept them. There were others that just flat out fell flat. >> Received: from nt-exchange.ifas.ufl.edu (128.227.242.250) >> by mx0.gmx.net (mx27) with SMTP; 27 Jan 2001 04:46:12 -0000 >> Does the mx0 above relate to Mexico? Perhaps not. gmx is also mx. T> 'mx' means Mail Exchange Server. My ISP uses 'ms" - Mail Server. It figures. >> Hpwever: >> Received: from du-148-233-187-49.prodigy.net.mx (148.233.187.49) by >> mail.gmx.net (mail01) with SMTP; 27 Jan 2001 04:43:44 -0000 >> Makes the source clear.

That's their logic and it's logical all right, but logic always has an owner and as you well know, there is no single path to the truth (or to wisdom). IOW, it all depends on what your objectives are.
