    Personally I wouldn't put my email on a strangers server. Just say no to free email!

    Hmmm... Using a well known brand in a domain, without prior permission...
    And you want me to use it for email?

    I hope Shawn is okay with it, whether he wants it down or not. Otherwise, it's a waste of money... and we're not just talking the reg fee.

    Yeah, I mean so far advertising profits have outdone the costs, so ATM atleast it works on the side of profiblity.

    What's the max filesize? Upload limit you mean? Depends on what your internet can do, but avg around 15-20MB

    Just for the record, I don't care one way or the other about the URL.

    You could actually take the whole chat crowd with their polls to a forum there and make a few people happy I bet from some of the reading lately! :D

    For the record, I don't personally care about it (in theory). But if people started using those free email addresses for spam and crap like that, I would care.

    soapbath, you've got a spelling mistake "Just click at the menu at "Sing up" "

    Should be, "Sign up"

    Maybe you have to sing to get free email service?

    **Request for musical emoticons**
