I noticed the address looked "funny" too.  They change it all the time though.  
You should have seen it when the hurricane hit and knocked out New Orleans.  
O_O

I'm sending you a new ethreal that I used to send email with Kmail to the same 
address as the last one.  Maybe you can notice something there.

Thanks much for the help.  If nothing else, maybe you can tell me what to tell 
them to fix.  I think they are listening more after the mess today.  My ISP 
is not huge but they are not tiny either.
