Anyone Want ubuntumail.co.uk Email Addresses?

[rowanparker]

Hello,
We are setting up CafeUbuntu (link (http://z13.invisionfree.com/cafeubuntu/index.php?)). And ubuntumail.co.uk will be a subproject, it will be an email service for Ubuntu users.

I was wondering who in the UK would want a @ubuntumail.co.uk or @ubuntu-mail.co.uk email address. Please vote Yes if you are interested, I am doing this for a rough number guide.

Thanks, Rowan.

I'd like an ubuntu e-mail but I want a .com or .net. I'm in the US and people look at me funny when I say .co.uk. I used to use an e-mail service based out of the uk because it was free. Then AIM came out with free e-mail and there it was.

[rowanparker]

Well, there is going to be that.
I am just running the UK one.
Please visit that here (http://z13.invisionfree.com/cafeubuntu/index.php) or here (http://cafeubuntu.com) for more info.

Being that it is not known who is running the mailserver, and what policies are in place ect. I would have to pass. there is still alot that needs to be put out in the open if users are going to trust this ubuntu-mail idea being talked about.

[Stromham]

[rowanparker]

i sent you an email.
To rowanparker.uk@gmail.com ??? Cos I have not recieved it yet.

[Stromham]

[rowanparker]

Ok, It's yozef (On this forum) who's incharge of that one.

[Wolki]

Did you talk with Canonical about this? See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/TrademarkPolicy

Just so that there won't be any problems later.

It would be nice to have a free mail service that works with "evolution".... I'd be interested, obviously if privacy of use is guaranteed.

[rowanparker]

Of course, the only person that would be able to access your emails would be you.
I do not yet know whether it will work in Evolution but I see no reason why it shouldn't.

Can I just point out, this thread was meant for people in the UK.

[easyease]

yep i wonder how many daft yanks have ticked the "no" option. hehe.

[G Morgan]

Any indication on finance yet or is it still a wait and see situation.

[rowanparker]

Well, so far it will be a free service and I may add a premium service with more features, space and so on. If I do add a premium service it will no more than £15 a year.

Rowan.

[Dinerty]

This seems great, I am from UK and would not mind a free ubuntumail.co.uk email address.

Should I PM you to discuss it mate?

[rowanparker]

Yes, and the premium service is cancled.
It's all free.
You can email me at rowan@ubuntumail.co.uk for details, I need your full name and desired username along with a secondary email address.

I like to have an email address that I can speak to someone and they can remember. Saying "ooh boon too mail dot coe dot you kay" with my username in front of it is a tough one. Ubuntu is kindof a silly word to say in front of non-computer users to begin with, as much as I love it. So is Linux.
