Well, there are more players arriving stage left. AT&T U-verse has been
pounding my mailbox with $85 TV/Internet offers. For an extra $5 you can
increase the internet speed to something reasonable and another $10-15?
will get you even closer to what most of us have.

I think things will come down a bit or they'll start throwing in extras.

How rude.
$ host amexol.com
amexol.com has address 12.29.100.131
amexol.com mail is handled by 10 wppim001.aexp.com.

You want to use a bogus address use ones made for that activity.

exray@mouse-potato.com or
exray@nomail.afraid.org

to be used in bogus addresses.

I'll stick with the two more well-known options, though.
