I had dslextreme as my first dsl but since dslextreme could not offer me
dsl in my current area had to look elsewhere. I spent significant time at
dslreports.com.
Speakeasy.net has an excellent reputation for allowing any user to run a
server without limitations - at least none that I have seen any reports
on. Viruses are filtered out if you use their mail servers although IIRC
if you state an appropriate why your email should be non-filtered for
viruses Speakeasy.net may let viruses in as long as the viruses are not
propagated (my interpretation). Of course Speakeasy.net is expensive
compared to dslextreme - you pay for what you get. I do not uses
Speakeasy.net's spam filter - I filter spam on my end. YMMV.
FWIW, my mom just decided she needs internet access for the first time -
to talk with my sister in Chicago and to my aunt (mom's sister) in Japan;
I think I will use speakeasy.net dial-up access for mom - on eCS 1.2.
