In a lot of areas, if you want DSL or cablemodem you're stuck with only
one (usually pretty clueless) ISP to choose. And fyi before I started
using uucp over tcp, I used to lose mail going through bellsouth's
server. I'd mail home a series of tarballs and get only some of the
parts.
Now that I switched to Time-Warner and a cablemodem, I still have to
route my outgoing mail via uucp to my machine at work because the
dynamic ips I get on my cablemodem are spamblocked by the servers at my
brother's university.
