If your IP is listed, tough. I'm also on dialup; I use my IAP's mail server to relay my outgoing mail. Even aside from problems with blacklists, using your IAP's relay makes sense if you have any volume of mail; your outgoings go quickly to your IAP who then has to worry about deliveries which _can_ take hours, days sometimes. Those black lists stop _a lot_ of spam. I get a few a day and dozens a day <plonked>. -- Cheers John
