sean Posted December 5, 2004 Hey, I'm thinking about selling email addresses at taobums.com. Â The easiest thing would be to just sell POP accounts that let you have [email protected] which you could send/receive email from through your own email software, ie: Outlook Express, or if your webmail allows you to import mail from other POP accounts. For example Yahoo allows you to do this. Â The second more complicated option, but that I would consider if the interest is there, would be for me to actually install Webmail software on Taobums. Then you would not only have [email protected], but you could check your mail through a web interface right on taobums.com itself. For example you would go to mail.taobums.com and login to check your mail and send new messages. Â Let me know if there is any interest in this at all, and which option you would prefer. As for pricing, I would probably sell email addresses under the first option for around $5 a year. Pricing for the second option would vary depending on how much disk space per email address is requested, but would probably range from $10-$15 a year. Â Sean.

Trunk Posted December 11, 2004 Seems redundant to me... sort, of "why?". Â We can post our existing e-mail address with our profile. If we choose not to, then the next layer is private messaging through which private conversation and/or exchange of e-mail addresses could occur. It just seems like its all covered.. and anyone could get an e-mail address already from any # of sources. Â my 2 cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sean Posted December 12, 2004 Thanks for the feedback Trunk. Yeah I just figured I'd open up the discussion to see if the interest is there at all. I know most people probably have too many email addresses to begin with, it was more just a novelty thing ... like having TaoBums T-Shirts. Â I just settled on offering people permanant POP-only [email protected] email addresses for making a PayPal donation of any sum to Taobums. More as just a small token of gratitude. Â Â Sean.
