Internet access costs to much for most folks.  My node does not have it,
it would cost $15,000.00 per year for internet access and FTP.  Probably
more people are in that boat than have FTP access.  The mail server is
more general, *everyone* can get at a mail server.  If you want to be an
anti-mail server person, fine, but the mail server should stay.  If you 
choose not to use it, it is your loss.
