Yes, it's unfortunate. I think the simplest way is to buy your own domain name. Buying dhanapalan.com only cost me US$29 for two years. That price was simply for 'domain parking', so I got Virtual Avenue (http://www.virtualave.net) to handle all my e-mail for that domain... for free. All mail going to dhanapalan.com gets redirected to my ISP account, which I can access with any POP client. It works brilliantly, plus I get 50MB of web hosting for free (which I've never bothered to use). The most important thing is that I own the whole domain, and I can do anything I want with it. As long as I continue to renew it, it's mine. -- Sridhar Dhanapalan There's no place like ~
