HS E-mail

[posol]

honestly, who uses it?

i see a couple people have it in their sigs....

frankly, the everyone.net service blows.... and im sure thats a good reason why a lot of you probably aren't using it.

i was doing some reading... http://www.hivemail.com/

basically, it works with our forum software (they built a plug-in) so that it would be 1 login for both (provided you use your username@hs.net) or something to that extent.

I'm still looking into it-

#1- it costs money. it's not a free service, and will cost me a couple hundred bucks a year. That said, I'm not going to go ahead with this at all if there is not SIGNIFICANT intrest in me doing so. I don't mind cutting the cost- but i want to see it get used if im dumping 2 bills on it.

check the demo- http://www.hivedemo.com/

would that be something you would use as your main email program?

what would you all like to see space wise? I think hotmail/yahoo give you 10 megs? is that enough? do you want more? what is the main deal holding you back, or that sucks currently about your current e-mail provider?

if you could write one, what would you do? what would you add that nothign seems to offer?

any and all suggestions aprpeciated.

(note- staff, this has nothing to do with your .com pop3 emails)

see the top right button on the menu that says "e-mail login"

hello and welcome to july. =)

but thats the shit service that im looking to get rid of.


and clayton- i don't care about you =) but i do like to see hits to the site. and if people are coming here to check their mail, maybe they will throw in a post or two as well.

its just like free porn sites. you get 10 free pics of some ugly whore, and 47.2 links with referring traffic urls so if you sign up they get paid =)

I signed up August 10th, I missed that memo.

 

[posol]

well, see, we're putting links to our email in the top right of every webpage now. if you could go ahead and notice that from now on, that'd be great. Ohh, and James, i'll be sure you get another copy of that memo.

but anyway.... BACK TO THE EMAIL TOPIC....

did you check out the demo?

 

[jamesA]

Yes. I like it. seems easy enough.

 

[BodyDroppedNikes]

i use the email service that you are going to get rid of quite a bit especially if i am buying something on eBay. i know i have that other email acct that you gave us people on staff, but i forgot my email login name and password...

 

[posol]

its not going anywhere yet.. don't worry.

i wouldnt even bother. people use and abuse the gallery. do you have to pay for it or do the seperate users?

 

[posol]

the gallery is currently getting re-coded as we speak. more details to come later...

this is about email, not pics.

 

[TurboMirage]

understandable, but imho 99 outta 100 users have their own personal email address. if this service costs you cash, i wouldnt bother with it.

but on using it to draw hits.
