How many email addresses do I have? Spam Protection
	The primary email server is located at http://home.1usa.com and the webmail for it is located at http://home.1usa.com/webmail/ and your email address is <somebody> @1usa.com It is fairly slick. Anti-Virus protection is turned ON. Anti-BulkMail (Spam) protection is turned ON. The older email server is located on http://members.1usa.com/email/ and has been a stable server since 1996. The email address here will be <somebody> @members.1usa.com Viewing and answering emails using the WebMail page should be a no-brainer, but there is no Address Book. Anti-Virus protection is turned ON. Anti-BulkMail (Spam) protection is turned OFF - anyone can send email to you at Members.1usa.com. Currently, you can use BOTH email accounts. Use the first one for your friends & family. Use the 2nd one for junk mails, or anywhere you enter your email address publicly on web pages, newsletters, e-lists, e-groups, etc. if you wish. Upon request, emails coming into Members.1usa.com can be forwarded over to your primary account on Home.1usa.com The primary email server at Home.1usa.com will REFUSE incoming mail from ANY MAIL SERVER THAT DOESN'T PROPERLY IDENTIFY ITSELF ACCORDING TO RFC STANDARDS. If you don't receive particular emails from individuals or Mailing Lists (a) like when someone sends email directly from their computer or (b) when a company gets a T-1 line and their provider screws up the DNS Nameserver entries Then you simply have them send their emails to you at <somebody> @members.1usa.com. Home.1USA.COM does not accept SMTP connections from hosts in the Realtime blackhole list. This means that any host present in RBL won't be able to send mail to your 1USA account. Hosts are added to the RBL by being a so-called "Open Relay" or by originating spam. Spam is bad. See http://www.1usa.com/spam for more information on the RBL. The Worldgroup Server at Members.1usa.com is setup for Plain Text emails. If people send you HTML-formatted messages, it will be delivered to you as an attachement named File.Ext. You simply open those files using Internet Explorer or Netscape web browsers to read the HTML-formatted email. 1USA also has a THIRD "plain jane" email server available - but without virus-protection like the two above. This is the kind of email server that all other ISPs have. To get an account on this machine, people need to contact the 1USA Staff to have an account set up. Is this too many options to choose from? Nothing like redundancy or having enough Backup Systems, eh? BarryZ
