Low cost national V92 ISPs?

[Hewitt Tech]

World is out for me. Although they might otherwise be a worthy ISP, they
have no V92 rated connections available in New Hampshire. Moreover, I think
they need software at their end to support V92 (the call waiting part)
although I'm not sure about that. Highstream.net claims that you can answer
call waiting on a V92 connection and talk for up to 3 and a half minutes.
Apparently this varies with the ISP. I'm surprised this feature isn't a lot
more popular because having to dedicate a telephone line for dial-up access
is a major inconvenience and expensive.

Years?  You might be mistaken about that.  At any rate,
bzs and crew have recently been angering a lot of
people because the rate of false positives has changed
dramatically for the worse while lots of genuine SPAM
still gets through.  Last fall I transmitted several
perfectly legitimate emails to myself from work that
simply failed to arrive.  It didn't occur to me that STD
was the problem was until subsequent msgs got bounced
with a reply instead of simply being discarded.

Barry Shein has got his side of this story, for sure, but
discarding my emails (especially when done intentionally!)
is simply unacceptable.
