    Only two – one yahoo which I rarely use and one gmail, which from some time is not exactly “mine” because my wife is using it too.

    personal, Work, (and like 5 or 6 others that I never use) :laugh:

    I'd blame it on the Brain farts.. But let's be honest, it really is more like a Methane factory between my ears some days then it is anything else...

      As many as I want. I create them on the fly under my domain. Each questionable sign-up gets it's own e-mail, so I can see where SPAM is coming from. TAXCUT sends Chico's e-mail! :doh:

      Exactly! I love being able to see how shady a small group is. Plus when the spam comes flying in I can shut the email down or forward it all to the "investor relations" dept. of the offending party.

        How many email addresses do you lot have now? I have about five - thanks to Google, MS live, and the fact that I kept forgetting my "throwaway" account details. But now, the wife wants to check a cat food offer, which wants a sign up. OK, lets see... Yep, have a new email dear: "Dontsendmeanycrap******@******.com" is available - that will do nicely... So off she goes, she now has two as well! Oh, bugger, I forgot three for the web site - make that about eight...

        Actually I only have about three now: two are all but unused and I'm planning on deleting them, and the third is Gmail. I've always felt nervous about this kind of account proliferation enticed by Internet services, so I take steps to prevent them. I try to never have more than one service of a given kind; get as many services as possible from the same provider; and discontinue unused accounts. And now you know why I dumped Yahoo! and am currently a Google whore. ^_^!

For internet stores. - 1 anonimus for search work, of my ISP. - 2 for sending files between works and home and reverse, of my ISP. - 2 for forums, CodeProject, hardware, internet questions, etc, of my ISP. - 1 anonimus for bookmarks, of GMail. - 1 anonimus for ski themes, of GMail. - 1 anonimus for ....., of Yahoo. - 2 anonimus for ....., of GMX. - 1 anonimus for ....., of Inbox. - 1 anonimus for ......, of Terra. - and 3 ó 4 historical, of some old ISP. And I do not see any good reason to share my mail adress, I do often use 10minutemail, is very goood!!!! And now searching for another, with alias. My philosophie is: for every theme a dif-erent provider. Do some one can recomend me a international provider of free POP3 email, with alias?. Thanks in advance. And i see all emails in one place: www.ch-software.de/popman/[^] :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: By

                I created a spammail-website for this thing, in swedish. It's free and available to anyone if you want to try it - http://storastyggainternet.se. If you don't know swedish and want to try it, just send an email to <whateveryouwant>@storastyggainternet.se and get it at http://storastyggainternet.se/<whateveryouwant>. So now I have 2 "static" email, work and private, and 1 legacy(msn/msdn/live account). Works out fine. // Eric
