The transition has not yet occurred; we will start transferring customers come the beginning of September.
In addition, we will not be offering free demo accounts. The ease with which spammers can acquire throwaway PSI accounts, coupled with PSI's inability to trace a given post back to its source, has made PSI a spammer's dream. It's not a matter of apathy, but of impotence. Those in charge of curtailing net abuse had few of the facilities necessary to do so.

This must be a new tactic for you. I have received numerous spam-mail messages from mindspring.com. I have sent numerous messages to postmaster and abuse@mindspring concerning this problem, and never received a reply. So your words are nice, but the reality checkbox is empty.

I'm the one who answers postmaster mail here. If we recieve a complaint about spam/abuse, we take action. We have no hesitation about cancelling an account due to abuse- Those aren't the customers we want to have. I'm not sure what you might have reported, but if you sent us a complaint, we investigated it, and took action if necessary. If you have problems with a user, send the report to abuse@mindspring.com, and it _will_ be taken care of. Robbie
