Incuriosito......
ho fatto una registrazione nuova nuova.
Ecco cosa arriva :

Dear Red Hat Network User,

Earlier this year, Red Hat Network reached a user base of 1 million 
registered
systems.  We thought that this would be the right time to update you 
about Red
Hat Network's recent progress.


BETTER PERFORMANCE

Our customers continue to request improvements in the functionality and
performance of Red Hat Network.  We have responded by providing the 
following
improvements for paid subscribers:

   - INSTANT ACCESS to Red Hat ISOs as soon as they become available. This
     means no more long downloads from ftp sites, driving to the store, or
     waiting for your friends to finish with their copy.

   - Priority bandwidth during heavy traffic periods.  Paid subscribers have
     immediate access to errata and ISOs, ensuring that their systems are
     kept up to date and always secure.

   - 24 Hour Access. Demo Accounts are subject to blackouts during 
periods of
     high usage. Paid subscribers receive uninterrupted service all year.

   - The ability to manage multiple systems from a single user login and
     password, and a single email account.

   - Immediate access to new Red Hat Network functionality as Red Hat 
expands
     the Red Hat Network platform.

If you are not currently a paying subscriber to Red Hat Network and these
features sound interesting to you, subscriptions are available for as little
as $5 per month.  Learn more about purchasing and our policies by

RULES FOR DEMO SUBSCRIPTIONS

We will continue to provide free service to users who are comfortable 
with the
demo functionality.  We will, however, introduce some new rules that 
will make
it easier for us to provide service to these accounts.

First, all demo accounts without a confirmed email address will be disabled.
In addition, all demo accounts that use non-unique email addesses will be
disabled, in accordance with our terms and conditions.  This maintenance 
cycle
will occur during the spring of 2003.  Your current account name and email
address are listed at the bottom of this email.

Second, demo users will be asked to take a short survey every 60 days in 
order
to provide Red Hat with valued customer input and to validate that the 
account
is still active.  Upon completion of each survey, RHN will extend your demo
account for 60 days until the next survey.

The data we collect will enable us to deliver more and better products and
services, including those of our partners.  We will never make your 
personal
data available to outside parties.

Thank you again for your continued support of Red Hat and the Linux 
community.
We look forward to providing you with new features and functionality in the
months ahead.
