It seems that my ISP did some upgrading and was sending all x10 email to a junk repository. HAVEN'T THEY HEARD OF x10!!

Think they have and that's probably why it went to junk.

I'm not bashing X10, just the trashy pics they tend to send.

OK everybody I'm receiving my newsletters again, and the economy will be one one step closer to recovery!

Given X-10's advertising history and reputation, who can blame them?

X10 in earlier days was considered a Spammer. Some of the web pages with racy photos didn't help the cause either.
Newsletters and special deal emails where frequently send multiple times a day.
Some ISPs block X10 emails and I had one spam blocker program that everytime I got a new definition file. I would again have to go into the exceptions area and unchecked X10.com.

X10 has now gotten better but some ISPs still block X10.com.

I always bought my X10 stuff from local (Baltimore) dealers until X10USA decided not to sell the CM15A/AHP to local X10 dealers.  The one I patronized for years was Pigs Electronics in Perry Hall until the guy who owned it decided to get out of the X10 business and sold off his inventory. He did a good business for many years, though.  I only bought my CM15A/AHP from X10USA because my local dealer could not sell it.

Dan; I did some on line ordering from Pigs. Too bad he closed and I believe all his tutorial and tips are also gone.

I also had one of their Max Serial Interface Kits for X10.

Gary Gabris, who ran Pigs Electronics is still around but only selling off inventory, here's the new URL for it: http://mysite.verizon.net/gary.gabris1/PIGSElectronics/index.htm#return   The Tech Tips are still there, no additions, though.

Dan; Thank you for the revised link.

[Dan Lawrence]

Gary promised he will keep the Tech Tips, that's why the new URL.   He lives about a mile and a half from me off Joppa Road.  I'm in Parkville.
