Holly shit... Where do you live? In Ukraine we have almost no difference (well it is different from one company to another) between commercial and residental setups. At least it is so with smaller providers like one I have at home and one I work for (they are two different companies). So it seems very very strange to me you need to justify anything with your network operator.
In most of the US, the standard residential ISP service gives you - some amount of bandwidth, usually asynchronous - dynamic IP address (with static available for a higher price) - some service quality and repair speed guarantees - many ISPs, especially cable modem, have annoying policies that say you can't run a server at home. But many don't. - some ISPs are starting to get the idea tha Most of the ISPs that provide that kind of service offer business service using the residential technology - higher price - better service quality and repair speed guarantees - static IP addresses, and you can run a server -- ---- Thanks; Bill Note that this isn't my regular email account - It's still experimental so far. And Google probably logs and indexes everything you send it.
