Back to Odds & Sods

That had you fooled... it was a track or album by Randy Crawford - years ago - excellent!!

Anyway - this page is here just to explain the method in the madness of my email address(es)....

Update!! Update!! As at 15th August, 2008 - All that follows is no longer true... I've made gmail my number 1 email address, and Bigfoot is number 2 - because Bigfoot has become unreliable recently....

I have 2 email addresses.....

bullet mike_curley@hotmail.com - note the underscore in the middle there - this is something of a "left-over" - I look in here occasionally - but already (mid-2005) Hotmail doesn't work with Outlook (then I switched to Mozilla Thunderbird instead of Outlook) - so Hotmail is becoming less and less attractive
bulletdjmikecurley@gmail.com - its a free service, and like the last free email service I used (altavista) - it could close down, or start charging in the future.

At which time I'd need to find another email provider - and notify everybody of the new address etc...mucky!

So I have another site... mikecurley@bigfoot.com - no underscore in that one - which is only a "re-router". I tell everybody "my email address is bigfoot" - and it re-routes your emails to me at gmail - ...... what for?? why bother??

When gmail closes or starts charging - I don't need to tell anybody. I just get into Bigfoot and re-route to the new email provider.

There's a catch.... Bigfoot only re-routes 50 messages each day. That shouldn't be a problem - boo-hoo.. I only get 3 or 4 emails per day - but if you ever get a message from Bigfoot saying something like "mailbox is full" - either send to me at gmail or hotmail - or send again tomorrow.
