Everyone.net or other e-mail services?

[Jeff]

Site: http://www.everyone.net

What if someone (namely, me) wanted to set up their own "branded" E-mail service ... either for existing customers, or as a new stand-alone site. I've been thinking about this recently ... for potentially one of more of my "Mail/Email" domains.

Appraisals: http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2495

I'm very worried about potential problems with SPAM, as well ... obviously. Does anyone have any experience with Everyone.net?
Has anyone ever attempted to launch their own E-mail Only site ... and what types of things proved effective, or too difficult to overcome. Are there other companies that offer a better service for the price?
ANY thoughts/comments/suggestions on the matter would be GREATLY appreciated.
Your convenience.
Thanks.

Thank you so much.

Sorry for the lack of updates but I am still waiting to activate the servvice as my DNS still hasn't updated. The main problem is that I got confused, asked enom, got an answer that turned out wrong, asked enom again, got another wrong answer, and am now waiting to see if it is finally right. In between each step there has been about 3 days of waiting time to see if I did it right. I know that it can take up to 5 days, but it has now been over a week that I have been working on this! the scary thing is that I'm thinking that I might have had it right before I got enom involved and they started telling me what to do (I had only waited 3 days before contacting them)

Patience is a virtue, mrjetguy ... thanks for the update.
Let us know when you're "LIVE" and how everything went (with both Enom/DNS and Everyone.net).

The good news is that enom took care of me and that once I had it right it took about 60 seconds to confirm with everyone.net not the 1-5 says that they warn you about Everything is working now so if you'd like you could sign up for a free email account at http://ti8.com Seriously though, I reccomend that anyone interested in using everyone.net does try it out and signup for an account. One warning is that everyone.net will throw some popunders at you. Not sure yet how bad it will be, then again every other free email provider that I know of does the same...

W :o W!!
Nice site, smooth with "Everyone.net", and nasty pop-unders ... all in a good days work ... for FREE!
Well done, and thanks for the update here, Jetguy!
Good Luck with it.

Looks like everyone.net even throughs Gator popups at you! Too bad no one else that I have tried is any better
