This will hurt me in the first place. And probably nobody else. Let's get real. Even if we all do this, this will hurt mostly us; as the number of people who use "big players" mail will be still much, much larger than the people who won't be accepting mail from "big players". People having their mail on "big players" would be still perfectly able to communicate with each other, so they would see no reason to move away from "big players". If they won't be able to mail me, they will just try to convince me to set up an account at one of the "big players", then "neither me nor them would have any problems"... Or they will try to convince me just to use Facebook Messenger or any other application of this type instead of e-mail... And they will be in majority! -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa [email protected] -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list [email protected] https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
