Oh, and I will, if I can't
a) whine enough for 'em to open back up again and/or
b) get DSL (which, last time I checked, I couldn't get).

It's just that having friends go to http://flyingtoasters.net/webmail:8080
(or whatever) for e-mail is kind of a drag.  Same goes for photos, etc.

As for their ToS not allowing servers, well... you'd think if they really
cared, they'd block -all- known common-service ports (eg. 20, 25, 80, 110,
143, etc.).  So I'm hoping that, by taking the high road ("I swear:
nothing commercial, no porn, no P2P") that I might get 'em to mellow a
little.  I hope.  Damn, I wish I were closer to the CO.
