yes, a mailto link is just as bad. there are several generators out there that can code your e-mail using a simple piece of javascript so the the spam bots can not read it. Google it up!

Edit: why do the links in your sig go to some random search style holding page?

You also have a free email address with your current employer. Just make sure you have the correct outgoing mail server. :biglaugh: 😛

Gmail and RR accounts for me.

I had a yahoo account for the longest time, but i made the mistake of NOT having a separate account to accumulate junk mail, so i just let it go to hell after a while. Since then, I switched to Gmail and never looked back

firefox would be your web browser. Thunderbird would be an email program that Mozilla also created. I could go on and on about all of the neat things and wide range of versatility Thunderbird offers, especially if you have more than 1 email account to manage. here is its website, check it out, but I would highly recommend it, especially if you have (or plan to have) multiple email accounts to manage: [Thunderbird — Free Your Inbox. — Thunderbird](http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/thunderbird/)
