I am back up with istop, but I'm sick of this.  My very limited dealings
with Ralph Doncaster personally and his behaviour on this list suggests
that I should also find another ISP.  If you cannot conduct yourself in
civil discourse then business involving interpersonal communication
(like dealing with vendors) might be a mistake.  I don't doubt that Bell
has acted in bad faith with istop - it's Bell - but I should never know
about it as a customer.

So, who did you switch to?
