I cannot understand why anyone is still using this provider. Too mean
to pay 10 Euro per year? That's probably less than a cup of coffee
every three months. As my granny used to say, you get what you pay
for!

I have both ES and EIOE. Both free. If one is down, the other is
probably OK. Just paying for something doesn't mean it will be trouble
free.

True. But NIN has been trouble free for many years. And it has good spam
filtering.
