    I just got to thinking about websites that ask for your email address so you can join, but never send out a confirmation email to verify the address. Whenever this happens, I generally put something like "noyb@nowhere.com". Being curious, I thought I'd look up the website and see what nowhere.com really was... Turns out it doesn't exist! According to register.com, the domain name is taken, but doing a whois lookup on it just returns the word "timeout" :suss: I wonder if this domain is completely useless now, due to large volumes of spam? should I feel guilty? :~

        I've always used nobody@example.com, since example.com/.net/.org are reserved domains, so I'm pretty sure I'm not inadvertently bothering anyone :) - Mike

          Well, most often I use billgates@microsoft.com, but when I really need a real bogus e-mail, I use Mailinator. You can do it on anything you choose - from .bat to .net - A customer

                    i sometimes feel bad for no@no.com (my favorite junk address). but, since IE is helpful enough to keep dropping it into forms for me, so i never bother thinking up a new one. ImgSource | CheeseWeasle

                      The only address that you need is abuse@real.com if(E_NOINTERFACE == pThat->QueryInterface(IID_IUnknown,(void**)&pUnk)) { // I aint no pUnk bitch! }

                          I'd tell you mine, but I'd be breaching the kid sister law. ;P Why is the phrase "It's none of my business" always followed by "BUT..." ;P
