They may give customers on their own network different IPs to connect to for their own services (mail, etc). Though I expect that kind of thing is not as prevalent as it used to be. A lot of people don't use their ISP's mail service anymore, they use something like gmail, or their phone. So they've got to be able to carry on using services when not directly using their ISP. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.11.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Dec 18 16:34:56 UTC 2020 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
