This message is going out to all Zipcon subscribers.

  Happy new year!  I hope everyone had very nice holidays.  I've
been meaning to send out a system wide message, but have been very
busy and am still playing catch-up.

  We are having a couple of different modem problems today.  First,
the 336-1700 line seems to either have a bad line or modem.  I'm
working on diagnosing and fixing this ASAP.  Next, the 206-524-7696
number does have a bad phone line.  US West will not have this fixed
until tomorrow, unfortunately.  I have been trying to keep it tied up
by using a piece of software that auto-dials the number.  Sorry for
the inconveniences!

  We have some new SPAM fighting software online, but it does
require a bit of work to set up.  Please go to
http://www.zipcon.net/spam.html for more information.  I am still
looking for something that allows web based modifications so that
people can make changes via a web page.  
 
  Finally, Zipcon is offering US West, GTE, and Covad DSL.  If you
are interested in using DSL, please let me know.  Your existing account
can be switched to a DSL account without a problem.  Please take a look
at http://www.zipcon.net/dsl.html for more information.  We are also
offering two static IP addresses on US West and Covad DSL circuits at
no extra cost.  This allows you to connect up two computers at the
same time with real IP addresses.

  Thanks for using Zipcon!  Dan
