Given that several of the blacklists appear to be IP#-based, how much
good might it do if we moved to another block of IP #'s with Provide.net,
vs. how much hassle would it be do that?

Is anyone still working on a way to limit outgoing mail to non-members and
allowing new users to have outgoing mail again? IT is not stop-gap if it
lasts indefinitely.

I'm a contributor. E-mail isn't important to me as a function of Grex,
not any more. I'm sorry we can't really provide it any more, but it is
clear we can't do a good job at it these days. Fortunately there are
alternatives.

excuse me for speaking up, but, grex has a mission that is severely
compromised, yet again, by *some* sort of .... something.
free access, free email, free confrencing, free party, free unix.
to me, those are not too difficult to maintain/sustain.
we have lost *old* email and now we are losing *new* email.
sombody(ies) "in charge" has/have a serious task to accomplish.
hell, even keesan and rcurl are bitching up a strum&drang. what next?

Maybe it needs to be determined what fraction of current supporters would be
lost with the end of reliable e-mail. If it is minor, then why not just give
up e-mail as a service to anyone? Lots more memory and faster processing for
everything else users do.

Putting on a spam filter would free up a great deal of memory.

Spam Cop and throttled outbound SMTP would help a ton but who is going to
maintain and configure it system-wide from the staff?

Staff?
Inre #254: of course Grex doesn't have to abandon e-mail between its users,
but outbound e-mail is now so compromised by not having access to AOL and
other servers that it might as well be abandoned. Then Grex can be honest
about the services it offers.

Someone tried twice to send me an email and it got bounced back due to 'too
much traffic'. Grex is not the best place to receive mail either.
