Email for business users is metered, and quite strictly. If you exceed
their limit (e.g. running a mailling list) they will cut off your
Internet access. A simple phone call is all it takes to re-instate it,
but the second time, you're cut off for a week with no recourse. This
was over a year ago but I doubt they changed their policy.
