*sigh*  

This'll be my last post regarding this thread, as it is obvious none of the 
people who responded to my email have actually read it.

I am not angry at you, personally.
I'm not angry at you for asking for help in setting up * to talk to BV.
I *am* upset that now that your system was set up and working you felt it 
necessary to post status updates about the goddamned VOIP provider going up 
and down.

Computer guru?  I'm fair to middlin'.  VOIP guru?  nowhere close.

If you're a regular networking person who wants to have things up and running 
then I CERTAINLY don't forgive you for posting BV status questions/updates to 
a list that reaches literally thousands of subscribers!  As a regular 
networking person you should know better.

Now, as I said asking for help and reaching a solution is fine -- that's 
precisely what this list is for.  Once it was working and posting "BV is 
down, what's up?"  "Oh, BV is up now."  etc type messages is NOT okay, it's 
NOT what this list is for.  I've got 35869 messages in this list to back me 
up on this.

You're a */BV newbie -- no worries and welcome.  Your initial posts were 
excellent, and I am glad that people were able to help you.  Seriously.
