Adam I suspect what is happening is MSN places a limit on either the number of messages you can receive in a day, or the total size or something to that effect. Then when the limit is reached it shuts off your account.

Now if you are ALSO getting unsubscribed from Gerry my theory would be the folllowing: Gerry is still trying to send you messages but gets a message from MSN saying your account is full )or whatever so Gerry unsubscribes you.

Assuming you can`t leave your computer logged in all the time (therby regulalry clearing out your POP account at MSN). The short term fix may be just to check your e-mail more often (if it is the size of your inbox that is the limiting factor). You also might want to try hotmail with it`s upgraded account size ($29 a year or something.

I went the network solutions route. I registered www.vanagon.org (Note Vanagon Content) and signed up for webmail as well. Its cool to have a domain name anyway... and if you have or ever plan to have a personal website its a great pointer. Its not really vanagon related so p-mail me for details.

Thanks, Chris
