    hey can a moderator help me please; i read the post about no hotmail email adresses anymore which is fair enough, but i dont have the option of a different adress, so could u like take me off the email list for the time being or something, as i enjoy this site immensely and dont fancy getting the boot.
    thanks

    you can open an email account with mostly anyone m8, yahoo, lycos etc. if you're on the net you must have a isp. surely you can get access to mail through them?

    O.k folks its eventually sunk in. I found that big annoncment thats been in front of me for over a week. but can we have any suggestions on whats considered safe exculuding isp email address to give people a better idea what to use. I will change mine 1st thing in the morning as i see that accounts getting hacked costs alot of time and effort to fix and i wouldnt like to fall into that catagory lol

    Hotmail is the very insecure and is the reason behind many problems we have had recently.
