20 May 2006 - Email Addresses

The issue of publishing our personal email addresses on this website has been gnawing at me a bit, so I have an alternative strategy that I would like your feedback on. 

I intend to create an email address for every person we are in email contact with like green@walton-collins-48th.com, deedubs@walton-collins-48th.com (dont click - not set up as yet) and then set up a redirect at the server level so that any email sent to that address automatically gets forwarded to your email address that we already have from the mailing list.  That way only we know each others email addresses, yet anyone in the world can contact us through the address listed on this site with a degree of seperation in terms of privacy.

The idea behind listing an email address on the site in the first place is so that any old mates who come accross this site without actually putting their head up can contact the person they feel most comfortable with if they dont want to contact me or Dean direct.

Let me know your thoughts.
