It did when I was on dialup, there's a number of issues:
If you allow your system to dial on demand, you could be doing so far
more than you wanted.
If your system spends more time off-line than on-line, it may be
off-line too long for messages to stay in the queue. They get bounced
back to you, locally, as undeliverable.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
