I have seen MCI mail numbers listed in the same format as 7-digit
telephone numbers.  Is there any meaning to this?


[Moderator's Note: No particular meaning applies, except that the
lower the box number, the longer the person has been a user. Boxes
numbered 1xx-xxxx up to about 2xx-xxxx have been on MCI Mail for
several years. The folks with 4xx-xxxx are newer users from the past
six or eight months.  PT]
