Actually, I only use this one email address at present. I don't like this, 
because I would rather keep one email for personal stuff, another for 
business, shopping, paying bills, etc., and yet others for different 
purposes; my dabbling in music, for instance (for which this present email 
address was originally intended). But now I must provide a working telephone 
number, sacrifice my firstborn child, and sell my soul to Google or some 
other corporation, and so on. 

I am considering buying a server; not merely for my personal email (as that 
would be overkill), but also maybe to run my own online radio station, as 
leasing server space has proved to be not viable for my needs at present. But 
I must do some more thinking before I take a step like that. I already 
started down this path a few months ago, and found that available servers 
were inadequate, as they are all changing over to SSDs, and as a result their 
available space is shrinking. 

If there are several email addresses in my headers (thus harder to filter), 
they are all only really my personal email address & the TDE mailing list 
(users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx). And I bcc a copy to myself, just to make sure 
it's going through, but I suppose I could give up that luxury if it would be 
better for filtering on the mailing list.
