So far I am becking this.

Getting a domain name and cheap/free/included mail service is
probably what everyone should do. You are then no longer tied (via an
ISP based email address) to your ISP.


But now you do not talk about usenet and would anyway be in trouble
getting usenet-access into the context... ;-)
Try and prove me wrong... I would be pleased and follow any of your
advice on the spot.
