I'm just curious (and I'm bored as h*ll on Friday afternoon at work) but how many email addresses do you have? This includes school, work, personal, ones you don't you often, etc. I have 2 - work and hotmail. No intentions of getting more.
I have only one. I almost never give it out, because of that. I need a "Deckard" e-mail address that doesn't give away my identity. Perhaps I should get one at Androids Anonymous. That, or at Blade Runners Do it Deeper. Can't decide. (sigh.... cut and paste, cut and paste)
6 1 very personal 1 resume email 1 utility email (a la clutchfans, ebay) 1 junk hotmail email from 1997 1 work email 1 gmail
Four that I regularly check. -Personal one that I've had for a while. Still used by my mother and old friends. -Work address. I try to keep most personal stuff off of it. -One that comes with one of my internet service providers. I have a few people writing to that one, and my livejournal reply notification goes there. -One I've started using more recently that: doesn't have my real name in an obvious place, and also that the other person in my house doesn't know about/ expect to see up on the screen all the time. Sometimes you just need a private place to talk.
1 Hotmail, for MSN Messenger and all "junk mail" uses. 1 Gmail, for online file storage and swapping. 1 Personal, for my day to day things, friends, family, etc. 1 Business, use for my online businesses 1 Ebay, use only for eBay transactions 1 PayPal, use only for PayPal transactions not related to eBay I have about 10 email "forwarders" pointing to my various email addresses as well. I know it sounds like a lot, but I have 3 PCs to manage them all
1 @comcast.net (my ISP) -- I never give this one out 2 @gmail.com -- the one with my name in it gets used for my Strat-O-Matic baseball league, the other one is used to register for websites where I don't want to ID myself 1 @yahoo.com -- I probably wouldn't check it if I didn't use my.yahoo.com as my home page 1 @eithkay.com (my webhost) -- my primary email account 1 @work -- except I got fired 3 weeks ago Plus, there's one wildcard address @eithkay.com that collects anything else sent to that domain. I use different email addresses for each company I do business with -- clutch@e.c, ebay@e.c, papajohns@e.c, etc. All of them go to one mailbox that I can filter by address. If some company decides to sell my address, then all I have to do is redirect the mail sent to that address to the trash (or /dev/null, depending on how I feel about them).
7 e-mail addresses 1. work 2. college alumni address 3. g-mail 4. yahoo 5. hotmail 6. g-sports primary address 7. g-sports alternate address
very private personal trash and storage not-quite-so-private another trash default that came with roadrunner super trash gmail - storage
hotmail- early days of email hotmail hotmail gmail-more recent gmail business email business email former school email-for facebook
6, 3 for websites that ask for an email (or software). I don't use them with friends and family, just junk. 2 I use everyday, and another just for storage.
Seven One for each deadly sin. Actually 1 for personal 1 for junkmail that I use when signing up for things chron.com 1 Personal one for work 2 General ones for work 1 for subcontracting for work 1 as webmaster for a charity website.
