I paid $15 bucks a year to dnsmadeeasy.com, but there are others out there. I have had some issues with their service, not enough to make me leave before my year contract, but enough to not really recommend them highly.
The frustrating thing is that I had open incomming port 25 with BS until I "upgraded" my service. I specifically asked BS about it before I did the upgrade and they lied to me and said it would not affect my mail server. Plus, I tried to switch to their business accounts, but they wouldn't take my money because I was on a residential line AND they wouldn't sell me a business line because I wasn't running a business. It was a huge run-around so I'm not entirely ready to give them any more money. Not very customer friendly. Anyway, Thanks for all the advice!

I'd like to try it. I too use BS DSL and was frustrated when I was told that nothing was blocked, but in reality found out that not only do they block it, but will not even discuss opening port 25 unless you pay for a small biz acct (=$$$). When my year is up, another 10 months), I'm very seriously considering going to TW cable. I had cable internet in Denver for over 3 years with almost 0 issues! regards, jp On Mon, 6 Dec 2004 18:24:15 -0500, Dave Sorenson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Quick question for those with Time Warner Cable internet.
