My Firefox Email Idea

Posted by Aeolus on Wed, 09/06/2006 - 04:30Spreading Firefox

To avoid it becoming a phishing problem, I propose we do what google
has done, which is gmail.com for anyone, and @googlemail.com for
employees. And if we can't do that, why don't we just make it obvious
that it's a email host instead of an official website, so instead of
@firefox.com, we just use @fmail.com, or @foxmail.com (plus I sort of
prefer those names over the generic @firefox.com, anyway). What do you
think?

It's a good idea having an different e-mail address for firefox users to overcome the phishing problem. @googlemail.com is not just for Google employees but is also used for gmail users in the United Kingdom and Germany due to copyright issues.

A technicality. I don't think that would be a problem, unless someone owns the foxmail.com domain.
