Default Mail forwarding and speed in the country...

Dave,

Here is what I do with my email:

Years ago I established a domain " i-65.com ".

I set up the catch-all email box to forward
to whatever email address I have at my ISP.

I have used my initials, JDB, as my email address
for years with " [email protected] ". That email address
is automatically forwarded to my ISP email address.

I have changed ISPs several times over the years.
I started with Compuserve and AOL. Then I changed
to UniDial.com. Now I am "out in the country"
with Alltel.net.

My server for i-65.com is in Florida. So all of
my email goes to [email protected] in Florida, and is
then forwarded to Alltel.net eventually arriving
here in Shepherdsville, KY. So I have been able
to maintain the same email address for years even
though I have physically moved several times and
changed ISPs several times, too.

I would think that you could set-up an email
forward from your domain email address to your
ISP address, MSN, or whatever, and continue to use
your domain email address no matter which ISP
you choose.

As far as speed goes, when I lived in the big city
of Louisville, KY, I had a dial-up ISP...the best
I ever connected was about 26K.

After moving to the country, I regularly connected
at 49k with a dial-up to Alltel.net. Last summer
Alltel began offering DSL over the regular phone
line, and I was able to get it "out in the country".
I am currently connected at 359K as I am typing this.

So being out in the country is not so bad after all!

I hope this helped, Dave.

Be blessed,

JDB
