Maybe you could point out to The Powers That Be, that if they want any glory for their company for your work in helping shape the future of Teh Intarwebs, their silly mail rules are interfering. Don't expect them to change their rules, just point out that you have a perfectly valid reason not to use a company email addy, for this sort of work. Meanwhile, use one of your personal addresses. That's probably more permanent anyway; even if you don't leave the company, as you've seen, companies get bought. The new owner doesn't always maintain the email processing for the old name(s). Getting your own domain (or multiple) is generally your best bet. -Dave (owner of davearonson.com for mainly that reason, and a few others) -- Dave Aronson - Have Pun, Will Babble | Work: davearonson.com | /\ ASCII -------------------------------------+ Play: davearonson.net | \/ Ribbon "Specialization is for insects." | Life: dare2xl.com | /\ Campaign -Robert A.
