Back on Fri, 08 Dec 2000 08:59:40 GMT, while hiding out in ba.internet,Steve
Winograd <stevew@pobox.com> surprised everyone by saying:

One question:  does the AT&T plan have any way to send mail out (SMTP) without
using their dialup?  Or do you have to use your ISP's server.

Also, out of curiosity, does checking your mail from another connection count
as part of the 5 hours, or is that exclusively dialup hours?

Thanks for the info.
