http://fastmail.fm - the way e-mail should be...

Jeremy,

on the about page it says:

Quote:

It's professional. No ads or tag-lines in sent messages; use your own email address as the reply address (if you prefer)

Do you need to change this? Or clarify it?

Uh Oh... April 18 is here!!!
So what is the final decision Jeremy?

Jeremy Howard · 18 Apr 2002, 04:21 PM

Sorry--refresh my memory; which final decision are you referring to?

clemont · 18 Apr 2002, 04:28 PM

about the tag line for the guest..... (it'll be fun if you can let us create our own tags!)

Jeremy Howard · 18 Apr 2002, 04:58 PM

In the first post in this thread I said that the customisation would *not* be available in the first release.

IL@ · 18 Apr 2002, 05:53 PM

Oops I missed that before.

Anyway I hope the tagline(s) will be nice anyway.

Weirdly (as a guest fastmail.fm user)
I'm really waiting for the change - (I'd like being over it already) maybe as I'd like things being clearer to me.

Sheesh! After all that....

They meant lowercase "c".

I vote for randomizing the tagline from a list, or at least some sort of sequencing.

My $.02:

FastMail.FM: Not your father's email.
Yet.

FastMail.FM: Write your mother once in a while.

FastMail.FM: Australian for "email".

FastMail.FM: Spread the love.

FastMail.FM: Sent .0000002 seconds ago.

FastMail.FM: No WWW (Wait-Wait-Wait) required.

FastMail.FM: Click it, you'll feel better.

FastMail.FM: Over 4 billion emails served.

FastMail.FM: Everything but the wait.

FastMail.FM: Your new Magic Bullet.

FastMail.FM: Four-time LeMans champion.

FastMail.FM: Faster than you can say "free".

FastMail.FM: Win a free email account: click here!

FastMail.FM: You've just been FastMailed!

FastMail.FM: In the time it takes you to read this, you could be FastMailing.

FastMail.FM: Satisfy your need - your need for speed.

FastMail.FM: Official email of planet Earth.

FastMail.FM: 100% lightning.

FastMail.FM: Come on home.

FastMail.FM: Get back to work.

FastMail.FM: Time's a-wastin' if you ain't FastMailin'.

If you don't make it http://fastmail.fm instead of Fastmail.fm, you're losing a huge "conversion" percentage, since many people don't know how to cut and paste a domain into the URL bar! I would guess that using the latter will cut conversions by 75%+!
