 Yes, that could be done. I have only one node that connects via pots, or
 actually I connect to the node. At the moment I connect once a day during
 toll free hours, as I do no like mail to remain to long in the queue.

 If I leave the connects to the node, there may be a week or more  between
 connects. The node has promised to switch to IP "real soon now", some
 15 years ago. Move my node to a location with no pots, would be a good
 reason to fullfill the "real soon now" promise.

 It would also be a good reason to finally dump the parrallel mailer for
 POTS and IFC. The ip side of this mailer is constantly probed by portscanners.
