And is that a good idea or is that a disaster just waiting to happen?

Free email service/address?

yeah like hotmail, yahoo email, or the other 62k.
I know hotmail is getting aggressive with their banners and now charging for some advanced services so I wonder if it's even worth it.

If you want to have 100% control over the email boxes of your users, I could offer a well-tested setup for a reasonable price.

Hit me up on ICQ: 166048805

By tested setup I mean over 50,000 domains on average 7 mailboxes per.

Hmm, I think Clay wants something different. It's a nice idea, cause if people are sending out loads of mails and each one has your URL in it...great promotion. In addition you may add small footers in each mail, like yahoo does for example.

I don't know much about the technical aspects...but it can't be that hard, some freehosts offer this service, too. If there are more webmasters interested, maybe all together could build a service like this, each webmaster with a domain of her/his choice.

Any suggestions ? Clay's idea really sounds good !

Yeah everyone wishes to get an email from [email protected] with a footer promoting porn in his office email. Great way to secure a job.

Disaster waiting to happen. What about support services for your users? Why would your surfers who's all about getting a good wank want a fucking email address? I'm sure they have 50 already...

Just my advise
