Has anyone used macace.net before?

It seems to use surgemail - which I haven't heard of before.

I just signed up to it today and on first impressions seems very good.

Maybe irrelevant but how do you pronounce the name of this service? A "c" is pronounced very differently in different linguistic groups (compare let's say French, English and Russian and you get what I mean)

May sound a silly question but to pass your email address to someone you wish to exchange addresses with, simple things like this may lead to wrong spelling and the person not being able to reach you. You'd definitelty need to spell this one out to avoid such hassle with messages not arriving.

MAC (as in Apple Mac) pronounced 'Mack' - ACE pronounced Ayss. Sounds like 'Base'.

This puts into perspective complaints (expressed elsewhere in EMD) that in another emai provider's web interface the logout button is hard to find
