ISP woes

Jul. 6th, 2004 04:34 pm
Many of you may know that for the longest time, I've used theworld.com as my ISP. My main email address, mab at mabfan dot com, is simply a forwarder email set to send my mail to theworld.com.

Well, over the past few days, emails to mabfan have been bouncing, as apparently have many emails directly to my theworld.com address as well.

Although I've gotten myself an account at sff dot net as well, they're set up not to accept most emails forwarded from my mabfan address. And to use their smtp server, I have to use the mab at sff dot net address. So I can't just switch everything over to there.

In short: I'm looking for an ISP that will accept emails addressed to me at mabfan dot com; that will let me send out emails as mab at mabfan dot com; and that will allow me to use Eudora to download and send all my email. It would also be nice if I could keep my mirror webpage files there as well (a friend has written me a perl script that allows me to edit my webpage files at theworld.com, so I can automatically send them to the company that hosts mabfan dot com.

Any recommendations? And if you're sending me email, don't assume I'm getting it.

Pie!

In other news, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] scarlettina, [livejournal.com profile] gnomi was able to make the "red, white, and blue" pie for our Fourth of July holiday:

Doesn't it look delicious? Don't you want some?

OK, so after my last post, I did some working around, and I've created a new email address for myself.

Now, I don't want this new one to get a lot of spam (fat chance), but it would appear to now be the most reliable way to reach me.

So here's how to let people know without spamming software picking up on it.

The username is my first name.

And the domain name is my most common one, which people should know.

People should feel free to send me test emails....
