Apparently not. He is even bragging about having contact@hisdomain because I replied with a gmail account He said he doesn't do business (ask for freebies) with someone with a free email account.
ROFL thats really too funny they are the largest FTP hosting, online storage and backup services providers but they cant afford a few dollars, the price of a listing in a good directory, i dont know about other directories owners but i really hate this attitude, starting every sentence with "we"... playing the big boys.., if someone comes to me honestly and ask for a free listing because he is just starting in the internet business and cant afford it yet, i will be more than happy to give him a freebie, but people who send emails like this one just make me sick.
Its almost as funny as the email i receive each winter from a poor russian girl, her mother is sick and they cant afford medicine, but she has internet access from her job at the local library. She stays the same age too, but her name changes, and her 6 yr old son became 6 in 12 months.
