First Impressions – last

So I want to talk about emails today – yes those dreaded things that we rely on so much but don’t always give a great deal of thought too – until it all goes so horribly wrong!

Now I have a personal issue with some email accounts these are namely hotmail/yahoo/AOL – don’t get me wrong when they started it was great that people could get email for free! However nowadays these are often used for/by spammers to attack your systems and avoid detection.

So what do you think happens when you send someone an email or they see your email address and it says @hotmail.com – would you think twice about emailing them?

Did you know that when you purchase a domain name www..com you can then get a matching email address to; @.com – now isn’t that just a bit smarter than hotmail or yahoo??

For years I blocked all yahoo emails as they were constantly targeting system with spam and viruses – and even these days I limit which yahoo email accounts get through.

So are there any free email accounts that are ok? If you run a business then sadly I am going to be strict on this and say no!

However for personal – yes try @gmail.com

So maybe you look at your own email address? What is it telling people about you?

Thanks
Sarah
