[BC] Uverse Question...

[Burt I. Weiner]

Tom,

I can't really answer your question, but we have Uverse in our area 
and it is not fiber to the house.  It's fiber to the nearest remote 
terminal and then copper to the house.  We have not signed up for it 
and have no immediate plans to sign up.  It does't offer some of the 
program services we want.

I recently changed to att's isp service.  The connection is great but 
the e-mail service...  I'm not real pleased.  ATT does not have it's 
own e-mail servers and relies on Yahoo for that.  I find that I'm not 
receiving a small but important amount of e-mail.  In discussing this 
with them, they claim that they are not filtering or blocking 
e-mail.  I've tried sending to myself from att to att and sometimes I 
get it, sometimes I don't.  I have a hosting service and an address 
with them that forwards to my att address and that seems to be 100 
percent and quick turn around.

Not much towards you question but I hope it offers a wee bit of something.
