I agree with getting personal mail servers registered, as far as paying
$100 for a mail server registration (as mentioned in previous
messages)...that's no good. As a user with a personal mail server, it
is bad enough to have pay for connectivity and a domain name. Having to
pay for the privilege of running a mail server is too much.
