We are now making available @physicsforums.com email addresses for all members. The service uses Windows Live (formerly Hotmail). So you use Hotmail service, but your address is under physicsforums.com instead of hotmail.com

Signups are moderated. Please use your member name when signing up so I can verify.

Awesome. I registered with something other than my username, I hope that's ok.
 
It would be cool if the e-mails were provided by GMail, because some people here, linux users like me, are anti-microsoft and have solemnly pledged never to open any microsoft site in their browser.

I understand, gmail does have a server similar to this, however accounts must be manually created and I won't do that.

I too like gmail better because I can use a third party program to retrieve mail from it. In order to do that on hotmail I have to pay... Plus I use Linux ;)

But I still like this a lot better than my old hotmail account.

yay, thanks for the free email acounts
 
@Perillux

You don't need to pay to retrieve your mails. There is a workaround for this. You can configure hotmail to forward your emails to your GMail address. In your GMail, you can simply label all mails coming from youraddy@physicsforums.com.

Hope that helps.
 
I am also an anti-microsoft person. Oh well, this still might come useful one day.
 
Thanks Greg! Now I can officially subscribe to all my threads without all the automatic messages overflowing my private emails :D

Visit the link in the first post in this thread. As Greg says, the signups are moderated, so it may be that you cannot use your account straight away.
