I thought of that too but he didn't register to anything!!! That's the
tricky thing. There's no way they could have known his emails address.
Hi didn't give it at all... (At least that's what he says :).

| If it is like the systems I've seen, you fire up your browser 
| then before you can access the system you have to either 
| register or login. (For billing
| purposes.) Once you have done that then it looks for the 
| presence of a cookie to get your userid/password on future 
| visits so you don't have to type them in. When your paid for 
| time expires you have to re-register.
| 
| They don't grab it from his email client or transmission stream.

| Hi list,
| I need to setup a wifi hotspot and my boss is requesting a 
| feature that he recently found in a hotel. Basically, he 
| plugs in his card, associates to the WLAN and then... he gets 
| an acknowledgement email !!! How did they do that?
| 
| I guess he tried checking his mail and they have some app 
| listening on ports 110/25. They grab his email address and 
| then what? What do they do? What next?
| 
| Indeed this is a nice feature but I have no real clue on 
| setting up that stuff? Any tips/hints?
