Dear All, Time to get with the program and submit before your living God. You don’t want to end up like the Egyptians – the big mummies? I’ll be sending my messenger for a bit of a chat.		Xerxes, It’s the holidays here in Greece (Carneia) and we’re having a bit of a bash. You know the sort of thing: naked, dancing nymphomaniacs doing their thing. You might try Leonidas of Sparta who’s not much of a party animal.
Xerxes of Persia Your Living God Let’s Rock!		Themosticles of the Greeks We know all the angles!

How to Create A Business Email Address

Filed under: Email — Tetsou @ 11:39 pm

I was working with a young entrepreneur from Toronto, called Robert, on developing his web presence and we started to exchange a few emails on the ‘how and why’ of setting up a website. Robert had the good sense to register a domain name in preparation for developing his site. But when I received his first few emails I noticed he was still using his ISP email address instead of an address based on his business domain name. The email address looked something like this: rob1234@some-isp.ca.

This is a very common mistake.
