    curious ... why seperate email addy's for different uses ?

    It keeps it simpler for me so I know which addy to use for which activity..... also any possible trawling by spammers for registrations on various sites is kept under control and some misguided sites actually sell lists of registered emails to 'marketing' companies.

    Added to which, I play online games and use forums under various pseudonyms :cool: and don't necessarily want my real identity to show up. My friends and family have the addy with my RL name ;) .

    I have all of them set up to forward any mail on to just the one main addy so I don't have to check them all constantly. Works brilliantly :D

    Please stop using the word "of" when you actually mean "have" - it's damned annoying :mad:
