MDH (member here) and I are working on a project for ALL RP Supporters across the world. (Although MDH is doing most of the work)

We are going to setup a FREE email server, hosted overseas and managed by MDH and myself (in an administrator role only).

We would like to find a way to give everyone who wants one, a free email address to share RP related information, without having to use your work or home email. RP related information only. It will be a way to collaberate with all other RP supporters.

We need input on the domain name:

Please vote for the one you like best.

rpmail.com or ronpaulmail.com

EDIT: LOL - i like ronpaulspammers.com but i'd be afraid the addresses would be blocked by spam detectors.. :(

Not sure what stage you guys are at, but I have an account with 1and1.com and have close to 500 addresses left.. (& could always get more if needed)

if you don't have a provider yet, you can use mine. The mailboxes offer webmail, POP or IMAP access with SMTP authentication, as well as built-in spam and virus protection.

EDIT: PM me if interested, I can set up an admin login for you into my account at 1and1 for you to use.

Oh, he's got a provider. It's HIS server. He's got ridiculous bandwidth, and supposedly is very secure, so we don't have to worry about getting hacked or brought down. Plus the user count is endless.

That's cool. Just wanted to offer it.. I've been using 1and1 for several years now and their service is really astounding... They're cheap and I've never had a problem (i've got about 5 domains with them now)..

I've hosted my own mail server before moving to them.. It was a constant headache.. every day it's an uphill battle against spammers, server crashes, having pissed off people if their mailbox gets wiped.. it just wasn't worth it anymore so now i outsource it.. :D

No, don't get me wrong. I really appreciate the offer.
MDH insists he is adequately prepared for all contingencies.

And I hear ya...it can be a royal pain.

Server crashes? Mailboxes getting wiped? Ouch... you must've been using a microsoft platform. :p

One of the groups I work with use 1and1 and has a shared hosting account with them, which they pay more for than I pay for my dedicated server... the service is fine, but that is kinda silly on the expensive side of things...

Why 238 views at this time and only 74 can make a decision in an uncontroversial topic to help out someone. Amazing

doesn't matter to me, just make sure Ron Paul is in the subject header so they get filtered into the right folder in my inbox.
I'll take eb@whatevernameyouchoose.com and you can forward it to eb@anyofmy20orsodomainnames.com

ronpaulrevolution.com is actually taken... unless David Gallagher would like to donate it to our cause, we won't be able to use that one.

rp08.com!

Also already owned. Looks like they will sell it for $255. In my opinion, too ambiguous to be worth that amount. Google gives loving pagerank++ to sites with words in the domain name portion of the URL.
