    I was wondering, I recently parked a domain name for an email host I'm creating and I was wondering how many of you would use my service if I made it? It's going to offer free email @hackmyemail.com and if successful offer many other domain names plus the email accounts will be 500 MBs.

    lol, yes, but many people said they'd use mine because of it's domain name. And well, I can get a few different features up. I may even increase the 500 MB space to some obscenely high amount. Though, I wouldn't have as good of a search capability. There are many email hosts out there. But I want to have a lot of domains that are creative and entertaining, though unlike a lot of email hosts like that I'll make my website match the domain names offered. And I'll advertise it to people who may want one, for hackmyemail.com, it could be geeks, hackers, or wanna-bes. lol

    lol, yes, I believe it is. Any the domain names will be appealing to some people that don't pay too much attention to quality (though it will be good quality), so they won't just go after something like gmail, but go after one with an entertaining domain name. I tried to also get notachance.com but it was taken. That would be entertaining to some girls, so they could give some address @notachance.com to people. It'd be amusing so people would use it.

    as somebody who offers free email from at my domain I would be very careful about offering it. It's really easy for people to abuse the email service and give you as the domain owner a bad name.

    Yeah, the main thing about the website is the email hosting. Though I will be careful. I used to offer it on my current website and it did get abused. I'll handle it for this website.

    Well, you could do that anyways if the viewer views the email as an HTML file. Though many email services or software only allow text or the user has it specified to only use text format. Though it'll be a while before I get it up, lol, I'm paying for a car right now, it'll be a couple of months but I'll get it up.

    If it's a success at producing a small amount of income I'll make a free christian email host.
