Hello DICKHEAD.. my NOT account has been cancelled... I no longer work as 
a volunteer for TFN, so the only account that I have is this one..

: : 3. When an office volunteer or visitor uses 'not' to connect to the TFN.

: Duh. The Ryerson Network is directly connected to the TFN. You do not

As stated before... The not server does many other things than what you 
know of Nabil, It handles when other programs dealing with the TFN accounts..


: Why should a TFN member need to forward his mail to not.torfree.net? In

: : If not's usage of the TFN bandwidth from Rogers were increased tenfold,

: Duh. Let Rogers/Ryerson say that.

I honestly think that Rogers and Ryerson would need to hit Nabil with a 
Hammer about 1 million times...
