Sorry, forgot to edit the subject line back to normal.
My ISP got gobbled up by another and so the SPAM filter that worked
great is no longer available, and apparently the current ISP's SPAM
filter mistakenly identifies WAY TO MANY legitimate e-mails as SPAM!
I'm not thrilled with the service provided by the new ISP, nor how the
transistion was handled. I never recieved the notice until AFTER the
old dialup service was CUT OFF! %&%*@$*&*@!!!!!!

I'm jumping to a broadband provider that just started service in my area
soon.
