Possible TSP Talk Email Server?

Many of you know that the delivery of our forum email notifications - in particular the forum generated alerts that go out to premium members, are not always delivered by some of the email services. AOL has been blocking them for many members, gmail has been flaky, hotmail, bellsouth.net, etc.

I was wondering if there would be any interest in getting xxxxx@tsptalk.com email addresses? You could use your username - ex: username @ tsptalk.com - or anything you wanted actually, as long as someone didn't already have it. I also own tsp.net which would be short and sweet (i.e... username @ tsp.net) - if that would be better.

I don't have all of the details yet but it is something we could look into. You would be able to use it for your personal email like any other email service if you wanted, but the main purpose would be that email from the forum (

) would not be blocked since it would basically be coming from the same servers.

The catch is that I would have to pay for each individual mailbox, and the cost would depend on the size of the mailboxes - usually between 200 MB to 10 GB. It wouldn't be expensive, maybe $2 to $4 a month - not something I could eat if we had a big demand, but again I'll work on the details and see if I can get bulk discounts and offer it as part of the premium services.

I know it's Friday and there won't be a lot of folks online, but I'm looking for any feedback. Thanks!
