132911 2003-04-02 10:37:00 Does anyone know of a free service that lets you use an email that u register with them and just forwards it to another address. i need to have an email address posted on my website but i dont want everyone to know what my real address is.

Any Help?

132912 2003-04-02 11:11:00 Why don't you use a Hotmail or Yahoo or other web based address?

132913 2003-04-02 11:24:00 Just create new free e-mail address with hotmail or yahoo mail (www.hotmail.com[)account.
Or NZoom.com mail account [url]http://www.nzoomail.com/ Not recommend if your going to use it from your website ;)

That is the easy way & if you do get spam, which you will when you post your e-mail address to your site, then you don’t need to worry too much about it.

132915 2003-04-02 20:18:00 You could sign up with orcon for a free email address ( they currently let you have 3, these not only forward, but have options of their own mailboxes.

Can you not get another free email address from your ISP or ask them to set up an alias address as part of your existing account.

If you are worried about spam why not just put a link to your email on the website instead of the actual address.

If you have a Domain website everyone knows your email address will anything@your domain name.

132917 2003-04-03 02:34:00 I think he was referring to signing up to the "community" (free) which lets you get some free email and webspace accounts. -=JM=- (16)
132918 2003-04-03 04:08:00 Yes Jim,

"he" was referring to signing up to the "free" Orcon community thingy. One does NOT have to have any Orcon "payed for" services to get 10 gig of webspace, and currently 3 free email addresses per sign up.

132919 2003-04-03 05:21:00 OK I believe you, but what is this free community thing and how do you access it. Jim B (153)
132920 2003-04-03 05:39:00 Jim B, go to: www.orcon.net.nz and "join"

Just dont "sign up" for things like dial up connection or peoffesional webhosting etc, as they kind of expect you to pay for that sort of thing!
