I finally found an e-mail that works

And it even pops Hotmail, finally! After Yahoo! and Hotmail both started eating e-mails I htought I would kill, LOL!

He is too excited, some one pls calm him down.

Au contraire! Zephyre--while you're in this excited mood, go and tell all your friends!

illandaria · 4th November 2001, 10:27 AM

A couple of points--because I'm evil like that.
1. Zephyre's a girl.
2. I referred her.
Do I get brownie points now?

3 points:[list=1][*]Brownie point noted[*]Make sure people you refer put your username in the 'referrer' field when they sign up; if they later become a paid user or refer paid users then you'll get free upgrades (not sure exactly what yet, but I'm sure it'll be enough to support a large family

)[*]It's about time we start to see the gender imbalance of FastMail.FM users even up!

Actually, I didn't *mean* to refer her...We were just exchanging emails and she said, "Email me at...(*insert Fastmail addy*"
But next time I refer people I will force them to put my name down as the referrer.

Gender balance is always a good thing...

Oh, I did use you as the referrer(sp?) m'dear :P

And I will soon have a legion of RP-ers under my control as they all use me as the person who referred them. Do we get like cash or something? Pyrimid scheme?

and for future reference - Zephyr is most likely male, and adding the 'e' means most likely female. Why I know this is beyond my comprehension, just from using baby books to alter names for RP characters.

Fastmail is fast; I receive at Hotmail mesages with delay or even not.

In my Signature I refer to http://www.fastmail.fm especially to Hotmail users. I tell them they can Configure external POP and Hotmail servers to retrieve email into the account

and that you can use an emailprogramm ie Outlook Express to receive emails with IMAP

Welcome to the forum, gnollet. I hope you enjoy it and also Fastmail as much as many of us do.

HI, I reveive my emails from hotmail in my inbox of Fastmail.fm ;
Can I bounce Spam-emails from the hotmailaccount?

Thanks on forehand for a short answer.

kander · 2nd September 2003, 06:56 AM

I'd have to test this to be completely certain.. but I think you can. You'd need to make a personality to match the TO: address of your hotmail box. Don't take my word for it, though!

But now the question: Why would you want to bounce spam sent to Hotmail? Several tests have been done, and it seems that on Hotmail accounts spam just keeps on pouring in, no matter what you do...

How many users have signed up using the domain

fmgirl.com ?

I'm assuming most, if not all, of these users are female.

While we're on this topic, any recent statistical info on the % of domains used by fm users? I'm curious how significant these two domains are.
