I'm sorry, nobody seems to get what I've been saying: I haven't been on
roadrunner for two years. I'm sending this email via bluehost, my current
hosting provider. Also, with these giant ISP/hosting services, trying to
get them to do something for me, that's one vs. MegaGiantCo, w/ layers
upon layers of managers and policy, is nearly impossible.
I can try emailing Bluehost, but...

AND THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE between you and manitu.net. You're not going for
their whole IP range, which seems to be what manitu is doing.

Well, except that means that a lot of people are in the boat the way I
would have been, had I been on this list two years ago. My choice, where I
was living in Chicago, for 'Net access was a) Comcast (*GAG*), AT&T, or
roadrunner. Great choice... and rr was the best, most reliable, and
cheapest.

Again, I haven't been with rr for two years. My current hosting provider,
Bluehosts, is is telling me that I was banned.
Also, again, it isn't just me. What was it, earlier this year? late last
year? one or two other folks were complaining, when they could *finally*
post again, that they'd been banned.
