But I didn't think it would help with my needs, so I didn't.<BR/><BR/>Nevertheless, anyone for whom that solution <EM>would</EM> work, it does sound like your system might be a better way to go about implementing it...except that if I used a vanity domain I would control it, whereas username.otherinbox.com is owned by you, so if your terms change and I want to leave you, we might have a bit of an issue.<BR/><BR/>I guess the bottom-line is you've nicely automated something that any competent Web user could do for themselves for the benefit of those who can't do it for themselves (the other 90%). That's nice. The trade-off is they'd be stuck with your domain name in their email address. The other 90% might not notice, or might not care. And so long as that's true, you've got a great business.Shriram Krishnamurthihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02956763366608000839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36038562.post-81788555251740554282008-10-17T17:28:00.000-04:002008-10-17T17:28:00.000-04:00Shriram,I apologize, but I didn't mean to unnecess...Shriram,<BR/><BR/>I apologize, but I didn't mean to unnecessarily spam you. I did read your article, and what I personally got out of it was your frustrations in the limitations of the "plus addressing" model. We discuss this in more detail at this URL, if you'd like to take a look: <BR/><BR/>http://blog.otherinbox.com/2008/09/why-not-use-gma.html<BR/><BR/>I realize how annoying it would be to have so many different addresses, especially when they don't do you any good. Personally, I believe that OtherInbox is by far the most complete and worthwhile solution to the very same problem you were experiencing.<BR/><BR/>Once again, I apologize if I came off as a spamming marketer. The invitation to try out the beta is obviously still open if you'd like to take a look.<BR/><BR/>- AlexATXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12393922088087945896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36038562.post-50978122684584766602008-10-17T16:18:00.000-04:002008-10-17T16:18:00.000-04:00Ol' Alex here apparently didn't even bothe...Ol' Alex here apparently didn't even bother reading my message, or he'd have seen the part that said “Well, boy, was that a failure”.

It'll just cause you pain.

I think you should check out OtherInbox, a new email service that fits right in line with what you are discussing.<BR/><BR/>With OtherInbox, each user receives their own domain name (username.otherinbox.com) and proceeds to give out personalized addresses to each site or service (amazone@username.otherinbox.com, etc.)<BR/><BR/>OtherInbox then automatically organizes these addresses, allowing the user to manage their email and, if necessary, block an address that is receiving too much spam.<BR/><BR/>It is currently in a private beta, but this URL will give you (and 25 of your readers) a chance to try it out.<BR/><BR/>http://beta.otherinbox.com/signup/stickywicket<BR/><BR/>Feel free to try the service out, and we look forward to finding out what you and your readers think.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!<BR/><BR/>~The OtherInbox TeamATXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12393922088087945896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36038562.post-13932887050526912342008-10-06T14:01:00.000-04:002008-10-06T14:01:00.000-04:00Hm.
