    Yes its possible... I doubt if that many members what their own @ukwebmasterworld.com email address.

    Create a new thread and run a poll asking that question........ if you can find at least 5 members who want it, I will arrange it

    If people can use hotmail, gmail, tiscali. Why not @ukwebmasterworld.com

    What you need to do is set up an automatic description towards the bottom of the email that each member sends out. For example, when a member sends an email, a little advertisement appears down towards the bottom asking people to visit forums.ukwebmasterworld.com or another advertisement. What do you think?

    I appriciate your optimism and I am very flattered that you are talking about UKWebmasterWorld.com in the same breath as HotMail and Tiscali but its fare more complicated than that........... you actually need a lot of resources to run a free email service (I did once at Velnet ) but you will not belive the anmount of support you need to put in to it and loads of spam complaint etc etc

    I am actually able to provide free email from here but I cannot be bothered with all the headaches that goes with free email.

    If members of this site thinks its cool to have email address of this site, I can make EXCLUSIVE address available but not to the general public as this will delight spammers and give me untold nighmares from people being spammed.
    My domain velnet.com for exaple is banned by so many spam abuse sites... eventually, I got feedup of spending hours explaining to administrators that they should unban the site as I have removed the spammer
