How is it possible for a Member of Congress to know if e-mail is coming from his/her district? Are they really excluding all e-mail from the vast majority of e-mail accounts, such as AOL, Compuserve, MCIMail, AT&T, Prodigy, Netcom, major corporations, etc, none of which are identifiable by district? Who's left for them to get e-mail from, small ISP's and the local community college? Seems unlikely to me. Save the Constitution for the real issues. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Dennis Mykytyn Chappaqua, NY [log in to unmask] |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
