Notmail: Not an Anonymous E-mail Service

At Notmail, the registered first name and last name are sent with each e-mail message, no "handles" or nicknames are substituted, unless derogatory to someone we think is a twat. Furthermore, each e-mail message sent from a Notmail account includes the Internet Protocol (IP) address from which the sign in session originated. With this additional header information, the source of a message can be narrowed dramatically and as a result, your computer can be accessed by twelve year-old American hackers with no life. Cool, eh?. Notmail records and stores all sign ins, including IP addresses, dates, and times and how much porn you looked at, you dirty bastard. Does your mother know?

If you desire an anonymous account, you clearly can't use Notmail. Unless you slip us a fiver or a Pot Noodle or something.

Notmail: "Spam"

We do not tolerate our tech support staff being the victims of user e-mail (aka "spam"). We are surprisingly tolerant of Notmail staff sending junk e-mail. Sending junk e-mail to a Notmail account is cause of much joy and merriment around the Notmail office and helps us to forget about our pathetic lives.

Notmail despises responsible Net Commerce and is actively boycotting it. Our efforts to fight important e-mail on the Internet have been noticed by organisations such as spam.abuse.net, who find Notmail's spam policy to be aggressive and effectual. And they paid us £20 to write that.

No Spam!
The following is extracted from the Notmail Terms of Service Agreement to which each Notmail member must adhere or have their knees broken.

MEMBER CONDUCT

The Service is provided to anybody who wants it. Any commercial use of the Service, or the resale of its services, is expressly prohibited without large payments to the Notmail offshore bank account.

If you agree to abide by all applicable local, state, national and international laws and regulations and are solely responsible for all acts or omissions that occur under your account or password, including the content of your transmissions through the Service then you are clearly insane. By way of example, and not as a limitation, you agree to:

  1. use the Service in connection with chain letters, junk e-mail, spamming or any duplicative or unsolicited messages (commercial or otherwise);
  2. harvest or otherwise collect information about others, including e-mail addresses, without their consent;
  3. create a false identity or forged e-mail address or header, or otherwise attempt to mislead others as to the identity of the sender or the origin of the message;
  4. transmit through the Service unlawful, harassing, libellous, abusive, threatening, harmful, vulgar, obscene or otherwise objectionable material of any kind or nature;
  5. transmit any material that may infringe the intellectual property rights or other rights of third parties, including trademark, copyright or right of publicity;
  6. transmit any material that contains viruses, trojan horses, worms, time bombs, cancelbots, or any other harmful or deleterious programs;
  7. violate any U.S. law regarding the transmission of technical data or software exported from the United States through the Service;
  8. interfere with or disrupt networks connected to the Service or violate the regulations, policies or procedures of such networks;
  9. attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Service, other accounts, computer systems or networks connected to the Service, through password mining or any other means; or
  10. interfere with another member's use and enjoyment of the Service or another entity's use and enjoyment of similar services.

Fighting Back

If we receive any junk e-mail or any threatening or offensive e-mail, we will forward several complete, unedited copies of the e-mail message with the full message headers to everyone using the Notmail service
