Free would be nice...I know there's no way I'd ever pay Yahoo for email.

Yea, that's a good method, but keep in mind that *@yourdomain.com wont' work because eventually some loser will start spamming:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
etc..
(just 100s of names)

so you need to setup [email protected] for each company...

Not all accounts have been upgraded to 100mb, but they are starting the process

digifan · 06-15-2004, 02:26 AM

Hmm.. I had troubles all day trying yo log in but didn't see any update yet. I read it in an article a month ago tho.

Odin88 · 06-15-2004, 02:35 AM

I use hotmail for most of my day to day stuff. I do this since I check it daily when I log on to MSN, and in 4 years of having the same address I still only get 2 spam emails a day (and they go into the junkmail box). I have signed up for a hell of a lot of shit with that email too.
