| That is great. It is wonderfull that people are so generous on this
| list to offer their own services for free.

| However, DNS is critical in Internet security chain. While I do

| servise -  thats however not how things are supposed to work. You or
| someone else may have an entry in your bind9 to point me to your
| servers instead to www.royalbank.com. Thats why we are supposed to use
| DNS of a "recognized" ISP, not of someone who just randomly offers the
| servise on the Internet.


Open DNS seems to be a reasonable solution

The problem is that if you open an account, the email verification
comes from a Performance Systems International INC IP and many folks
have 38.0.0.0/8 blocked as spammers.
