Bouncing Problems

[Don Bradner]

Here's the big question: Why on earth would you consider switching ISPs when the
problem is an e-mail problem?

From where I sit, the e-mail provided by an ISP is the very LAST one you should
consider using. Been a topic heavy on my discussions elsewhere this week as
hughes.net suffered a massive e-mail meltdown (my account sends a lot of
automated e-mails to Hughes users, and I've been dealing with all the bounces).

E-mail accounts should be independent, and preferably portable. Best is to get
your own domain name, but many are reluctant to do that, so alternatives like
Google's GMail (best in my opinion) or Yahoo mail are likely the best way to go.

Choose ISPs for their ability to provide you with a connection. Choose e-mail
providers for their quality, performance, and capacity. There are NO ISPs that
have e-mail systems as robust as Google's.
