I find it surprising that a dial-up would even bother trying to be

some reasons:

because the provider has proven to be unreliable.

because it is really to change email addresses.

because I'm a geek.


I can think of no reason not to block mail from dynamic IP hosts.


that doesn't mean there are any valid reasons to block all
email from dynamic IP hosts.


Yet, I do know of one person who insists on using his own server and
mail server on cable. Never have figured out why.


see above.
