I did hear about an isp called optigate.net (coarsegold, CA) that went
bankrupt quite recently ... [at least, an ex optigate customer emailing
out of a dynamic dsl ip who ran into our filters told me optigate had
shut down suddenly ...]
You might not want their IP space though, if you propose to put
mailservers on it.
