[Elecraft] Suggestions on e-mail server?

Tue May 6 23:51:00 2003

Hey Doc,

I'm on Earthlink as well and had the same problem. I just opened an
account at www.softhome.net for e-mail. They are great! I've had no
problems with e-mail since I switched. You can sign up for a free
account or pay a very small amount for their pro service. I went with
the $15 per year account. This was from a suggestion that Eric from
Elecraft put here on the list. You might want to check it out. Also the
other thing that you could try, is to go to your account page at
Earthlink and turn off their "Spaminator" as this is what is causing it.
The down fall to that though is that you'll get lots of spam mail...

Hope this helps...
