I use web based email services for two main reasons. First is that I know I can (and do) access my email from anywhere in the world .
Second is that it does not lock me into a particular ISP. I am currently using SBC DSL for my home internet access. Like every broadband supplier, they keep raising their rates thinking that you will either not notice or that switching to a new supplier (and having to change email addresses) is too much of a hassle. The next time SBC attempts to raise my rates, they lose me as a customer and I switch to a different supplier and the cycle repeats. I have had the same Hotmail addresses for over 10 years... makes it easy for people to keep in touch. Yes, I could get my own domain name and set up a permanent email address that way, but that can make reason #1 more difficult. ---------- So my question is why are you restricting yourself to such limited means as WEB mail ? _________________________________________________________________ It’s the same Hotmail®. If by “same” you mean up to 70% faster. http://windowslive.com/online/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_acq_broad1_122008 _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
