  Anthony's point is that if you get your own domain, and then have
  that point to something like optonline, you'll have your own email
  address, and if/when you decide to move off optonline, you change
  the pointer to a new address, and poof, you've changed the low-
  level email system but the world still sees the same address, making
  for a truly unchanging email system 'till you die, or email changes.
