Off the tangent of ISP run mail servers, It would be sure nice if TW would
offer static IP's.  I used to run my own mailserver for years over a 56K
dialup, but the telephone has to go.  Sure was nice iptabling sources of
spam and not having to play domain hosting games.  Sure, I lost all source
of anonyminity with a permanent known address, but the responsibility was
worth it.  

They ought to give everyone a non-changing IP address.  That ought to
clean up much nonsense on the net and let disturbed people like me track
who's computer is messing up spreading viruses.  I don't know, it just
seems like the way dynamic IP's are being pushed is the source of much
evil in the world.  Tattoo a static IP to each house and I feel that the
internet would be more like a community, rather than strangers on a
connection that quickly vanishes.

Sorry, its 1:30am and Santa drank some good chocolate milk with those 
cookies and had to rant.  Merry Christmas everyone!
