Then on the "contact us" section of the site they have an email address posted like "companyname9583285@aol.com". Priceless... Well since I have a business domain that uses an aol e-mail address for contact..... 1) my domain gets so much spam its like trying to find a needle in a haystack even with using filters while my aol account gets nearly no spam at all 2) my domain has a limit of 10mb while with my Aol account I don't have the concern of a full mailbox (see my above post for limits) 3) When I am signed onto Aol all I have to do is click on switch screen names to see if I have mail on that name and I will see an e-mail sent there faster than if it is sent elsewhere allowing for a much faster response time

Granted, I understand what you're saying, but have you thought of forwarding mail from the business account to your AOL account instead of just handing out the AOL address? The AOL filters would grab anything the business filters missed.

Would it make a difference to you that the Aol address that is used is the company name, same as my domain? said by rileyjam514 : Granted, I understand what you're saying, but have you thought of forwarding mail from the business account to your AOL account instead of just handing out the AOL address? The AOL filters would grab anything the business filters missed. Actually Aol doesn't filter out forwarded mail as it does mail addressed directly to an Aol account. I forward all my Earthlink mail to an Aol screen name, luckily I don't use that name for anything besides that cause all I get there is spam.
