... which is for nought because some (many?) mail administrators are 
dropping or otherwise tagging mail originating from Rogers' "dial-up" 
IP block as spam. Yes, the business IPs fall under that category too. 
The worst part of it is that you pay twice as much for the privilege 
of having your mail ignominiously branded as SPAM and essentially 
thrown away in the spam bucket. You don't even get a bounce so you 
have no way of knowing this happened unless someone who was expecting 
your mail tells you that they did not receive it. Not many people 
troll through their spam box, if they know that it even exists.
