Biology Lines: 11 Actually your summary raises a few more questions, Chip. Who pays the bills for the EMail that is passed? How can they control their costs, if necessary? What arguments can be used to encourage a potential provider to allow mail through, and what arguments can be used to discourage those same people, or existing providers? Do these same people have the right to control the route your mail takes, given that you are using their resources? -- Eliot Lear [lear@turbo.bio.net]
