So how long is the email address good for for the $140 or whatever that is being charged? 1 year?


Added
I guess looking at it from a consumer pov my concern would be that I rent(?) calgary at limo dot ca and use that email for my business.
Someone offers you 80k for limo dot ca and you sell it. The email that I have tied to my business is now a pain because I have to find a new one and get the message out to make sure people with my calgary at limo dot ca, that I bought from you, get my new email address.
I guess I am thinking that there might have to be some kind of committment to insure the renter(?) that they can have confidence in their email not going away after a year or whatever.

I do see the potential but I also see there being a few possible glitches.

when you purchase the plugin it never expires, and will be in the Repository at Wordpress.org for updates

Hey Ian....Sorry....not a problem with the plugin itself...I was pretty sure it would be in the WP repository.

I am referring to the potential issues as a consumer buying an email address and then the domain owner gets an offer to sell the domain...that is where the potential for issues present themselves. The person buys the email address from the owner of the domain... and then the domain owner sells the domain on....

I agree somewhat, I guess morally you should disclose to the "buyer" that you have resold email address and that as part of the deal they be maintained for the final duration (1yr from registration) and it would be up to the "buyer" to decide yes/no if he would continue

I guess the important part would be to "blacklist" names that you will never sell or you forecast what the "new" owner may want

It does leave the EndUser helpless, so i imagine if the email address was "mission critical" for the end user they would buy the domain ))

I actually have multiple WP sites and am considering this, it sounds interesting. Do we as the admin have the ability to place ads in the email header or ??? I would like to try it if your offer is available. Should I find it would work for me, I will then purchase multiple site rights.

Thanks,
Enterpryzman

Neat product.

Quick questions: how would users check their email and what about spam, scams, viruses, etc?

 

[ianccc]

Hi Tia,

Most end users choose to add the new email as an alias to their existing gMail, Yahoo Etc
They can also add it as a pop account and use outlook if they wanted as well, the instructions are spelled out in the "auto response" sent upon registration

- Implementing a NewUser TOS that is a requirement during registration,
- Most paid accounts should be free of misuse, you can get a free one to cause problems

I prefer to let the gMail, Yahoo guys do the "heavy lifting" so i will provide in the TOS, (act up - terminated - no refund)
