We all know what happened back then. New to the world of computers, we happily signed up for a Yahoo Mail! account, one of the best email providers back then. Sadly, all the cool sounding names had been taken, and we had to make do with something like Yorke1988@yahoo.com, hardly the unique email addresses to separate yourself from the masses.Some things haven't changed since then. Yahoo Mail is st
…The more people want to “give” me money.
Who knew that the key to winning the European Lottery was to start new mailing addresses? Apparently, they’ve been trying to reach me at my Project Mayhem address for three months. I’ve only had the damned address for about three weeks now. I think I’m going to answer one [...]
Spammers get a hold of e-mail addresses in roughly a zillion ways. When you buy something at a small, lesser-known online store there's a decent chance they will sell your address to spammers. Even if it's a big, reputable store that gets your cash, the store's records could still be stolen or leaked. Sign up for a newsletter? Your address could certainly get sold. Ever write comments in blogs or

Viral marketing has an array of possibilities and ways to achieve your overall goals. However, just like everything else, preplanning and the right setup to create success are the things you will need to make it work for you and your e-business.The first thing you want to be sure you don’t do is get over-zealous. The one thing you need to avoid at all costs is spamming. Spamming is still used widely, but with the government establishing more restrictions and fines you don’t want this to be a problem for you. The professional image of your site will also suffer if you send mail blatantly.Spamming requires a database that contains a huge list of e-mail addresses set up so that the message can be delivered with one click. The problem with it (aside from the governmental restrictions and a
In my previous post i tell you that how to get temporary or anonymous email service to sign up various sites that you come across everyday.Now if you want to use gmail efficiently check this.Gmail has an interesting quirk where you can add a plus sign (+) after your Gmail address, and it'll still get to your inbox. It's called plus-addressing, and it essentially gives you an unlimited number of e-mail addresses to play with. Here's how it works: say your address is pinkyrocks@gmail.com, and you want to automatically label all work e-mails. Add a plus sign and a phrase to make it pinkyrocks+work@gmail.com and set up a filter to label it work (to access your filters go to Settings->Filters and create a filter for messages addressed to pinkyrocks+work@gmail.com. Then add the label work).More real world examples:Find out who is spamming you: Be sure to use plus-addressing for every form you fill out online and give each site a different plus address.Example: You could usepinkyrocks+n

Spamming requires a database that contains a huge list of e-mail addresses set up so that the message can be delivered with one click. The problem with it (aside from the governmental restrictions and associated fines) is that it irritates the recipients and kills the validity of your campaign, which in turn kills the factors that would motivate someone to refer your site.

Nathan Weinberg at Inside Google sure can write a dramatic blog entry. For instance, in this one on Google closing a security flaw in its new Presentations feature of Google Docs, he starts out with a screen capture of e-mail addresses that were leaked through that flaw. Of course, the addresses are obscured. It’s a [...]
1.Be upfront: Put an e-mail sign-up box prominently on your home page. Why not just tell customers what you want? In return, "offer something of value, earn their trust, and build the relationship," says Jeffrey Graham, vice president at Dynamic Logic, a New York-based online research company. The offers could include free tips and advice, news alerts, newsletters and/or new product information. Be creative, but allow people to opt-out of these e-mails anytime they want.Two online retailers that follow this strategy effectively are Health4her.com and BabyCenter.com. The latter site asks prospective mothers simply for their e-mail address and the date their baby is due. With that information, BabyCenter.com is ready to roll — it can offer pregnancy and child-rearing tips as well as cribs, car seats and other products up until long after the baby is born.Similarly, Health4her.com, which sells health and beauty products for women, can directly reach the consumers who want to be reached,

But alas, for job-seeking, the hip moniker might be a career killer. A new study finds that electronic resumes linked to job candidates with quirky and “unprofessional” e-mail names are rated lower by potential employers than those with professional names. With the increasing use of online screening, an applicant’s e-mail address could influence whether a resume gets tossed into the cyber-trash or makes it to human resources. >>

Every one of us has been in that bind where a site or service will ask you for your e-mail address and you just don’t want them to have it cause you’re tired of junk mail. Guerrilla Mail is free service that will answer your calls; it will create a timed 15 minute temporary e-mail account for you to use including a temporary mailbox that only requires a refresh to check it. Once you get your e-mail from the site you have signed up for, save the information and let your account time out. No more spam :) If you need a little more time to wait you can click a link for an additional 15 minutes added onto your timer. This is a great service I expect I will use frquently and in the name of spam so will you.
