Rogers bandwidth warnings appearing in web browser

[Dave Germiquet]

Hi Guys,

I fall into the same situation, my providers do use my "provider"
email address for news bulletins however I never use that email.

I guess an easy fix is to forward all your mail from your providers to
your "real" email address so you get all bulletins.
