This makes me feel as uncomfortable as the time a manager where I was working said he wanted to find my "sweet spot". |

Why would I want to pay $7 for an e-mail address? Also, is that a yearly fee or a one off? Do you cancel the e-mail account after one year? |

Fav+ to check next payday! ...like the slipmats... Good work, dude! |

that, and also no email box is spam-free these days. unless you don't use it. |

bob: you're not actually paying for the mailbox, but for the actual "Pluspack", which is including the oppurtunity to get yourname@xltronic.com. we're trying to find a balance between xltronic expenses and how to cover them and at the same time provide something useful and nice for ppl who wants to help us out by subscribing to our services. but obviously, there are always someone who dislikes your ideas (but usually never come up with something better). as for the gmail spamfilter, it's the best filter i've tried so far. no spam has been able to get thru to my mailbox so far - and, believe me, i usually get >100 spams / day. my old (3rd party outlook) spamfilter usually caught around ~90% of them. we have around 85 more xltronic e-mail accounts to offer. so, if you're interested, let me know. the accounts will expire if you're not renewing the Pluspack yearly, because a) since the # of accounts are limited, give other members the ability to get e-mail accounts... and b) my webhosting provider want me to pay the bills even next year |

gmail is the best mailbox of those i've used, i admit. |

hmmm... ceri? |

How about a free forwarding address for all users but if they want mailbox space then they pay the $? Seems a much better route for me. It's a better step than having PMs and also people no longer need to give out their e-mails and the xltronic address stays anon, to an extent, as you need to be a member to view it. |
||||||||

hmm.. you're talking as if it would be possible for me to use the gmail spamfilter on something outside of gmail..? like I could apply it to my other mailbox... is that just me reading it wrong? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nice option :) Does it really have to be username@xltronic.com? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"free forwarding address for all users" DJ Ableton: too much work for me and would get me nothing in exchange. :( it is possible to forward your @xltronic.com addy to somwhere else, once you've signed up tho. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drunken: possibly not.... im talking about the builtin gmail spamfilter. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drunken: but you could set up an xltronic addy, just for cleaning purposes, then forward the clean e-mails to another addy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aesthetics: well, let me put it this way: if 20+ ppl emailed me and said they're not gonna sign up unless they can choose their own xltronic-alias, then i would consider it. but for now, it's easier for me to use the same alias for users everywhere. |
||||||||
|

haha, we'll see.. I already have three mailaddresses... I'm just wondering how one sets up spamfilters.. I mean.. do I need a program to do it, or can I do it if I have control over my own mail services (like on a server/domain we own)? I thought I set some spam filters up once, but I keep getting this "OEM SOFTWARE!!!" stuff and those mails that just don't make any sense at all.. mostly because they're being sent from just random people with proper names. |

Can I have tridenti@xltronic.com or does it have to be my account name? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tridenti@xltronic.com, sounds fun, but i think i get lots of pron spam from that account |
||||||||
|

drunken: it depends on what e-mail client you're running. if it's totally web-based, and your provider does not run their own spamfilter, then you need to subscribe to a 3rd party solution, a "washingmachine". if you're running ofline solutions (using pop/imap), like Outlook etc, then i recommend you to download and install 3rd party software (or use the webbased "washingmachine" solution above). i've used Spamfighter for a couple of years now, which i highly recommend, although my recent discover of the more efficient gmail spam filter have put Spamfighter a bit behind. |

hmm.. ok. I'm using an online thing called squirrelmail, but that's just because I don't like having mail progs on my computer... it's possible, though, so I think the webmail thingie is just something that's installed for convenience, and connects to the pop server instead of something exclusive. the thing is there's something in the server control panel thing where I can set spam and antivirus settings for the mailboxes, and I think I should be able to subscribe to some external service there, but I have no idea how... |

if you're calling it candypack you need to create some graphics to go with it in that typical "vector" style with a black man with a blinging gold tooth and a talkiebubble thing saying "CANDYPACK?!" |
