I think you're right mostly however I think that there could be great benefit from everyone running their own email servers instead of the cloud doing it. The only problem is the entry level complexity.

Oh! Cool. I didn't even think of the fact it might be a Cable only restriction. Thanks for pointing that out.<br>
<br>
I wasn't being critical of that policy. T'was just FYI.<br>
<br>
Frankly, I think it generally has more benefit than harm for the bulk of users on cable. But you can make arguments in many dimensions about it.<br>
