    A new one I just heard about.. https://disroot.orgããThe project is based in Amsterdam, was founded by Muppeth andãAntilopa in 2015, it is maintained by volunteers and relies onãthe support of its community.ããMailbox size limit: 1 GBãAttachement size limit: 64 MBããOne particular feature..ããDelimiters: You can use delimiters (plus sign, "+") in yourãemail address to create sub-addresses, likeãusername+whatever@disroot.org, for example for filtering andãtracking spam. Example: david@disroot.org can set up mailãaddresses like 'david+bank@disroot.org' that he could give toãhis bank. It can be used only to receive emails, not to sendãones. Your emails will always be sent as david@disroot.org.ãã-- ãã--- OpenXP 5.0.51ã * Origin: Ogg's Dovenet Point (723:320/1.9)ã þ Synchronet þ CAPCITY2 * capcity2.synchro.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/Rlogin/HTTPã

So yeah, you can be mr.o@yourbbs, but you can't also be mro.bank@yourbbs unless you set up a specific alias. But mro#bank@yourbbs needs not pre-setup.ã-- ã digital man (rob)ããBreaking Bad quote #20:ãSo who's your chief, little injun? - Hank SchraderãNorco, CA WX: 67.9øF, 62.0% humidity, 6 mph S wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrsã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã

Gmail is half-baked in that regard. My main email ãprovider is Globat and/or Netfirms. But they support the ã(comment) on the outbound and inbound too.ããã M> i just wish we could use periods because that would be theã M> best way. i am running my own server with synchronet so iã M> can just do aliases.ããI have not found much use for the delimeter trick.

It turns out ãthat gmail will accept it when you link up to the service using ãpop/smtp or imap.

(Comment) only seems to benefit the sender as a kind of ãquick note. The recipient won't necessary see it unless they ãlook for it in the headers. But a Claws user told me that they ãsee the full name(the comment here)@somewhere.com in the ãreader.ããããã--- OpenXP 5.0.51ã * Origin: Ogg's Dovenet Point (723:320/1.9)ã þ Synchronet þ CAPCITY2 * capcity2.synchro.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/Rlogin/HTTPã
