I believe it has been a couple of years since the vanity email service worked; a search found that whoever was hosting the website and the email addresses was a company who had been blacklisted by most all ISP's which did not speak well to me of the future of the actual website. 

        Having dealt with it in the 1990s where,
        among other things, I brought this 
        list (and others) from Fidonet,
        I know a lot more of the story. Suffice
        it to say that in order to get reliable
        server operation, it was Chris Gebhardt
        that helped move everything over to
        the oldradio.com server at his facility,
        virtbiz.com in 2005.

        Aside from a hard drive that died, we
        have had almost no problems at all 
        in nearly 10 years now.
