their block if they are, well, blocked.
Am I missing something vital? Why does it "suck" that they have to
write an email? The technology is well enough established, it's
hardly rocket science.
There are definite privacy concerns. Sure, anyone can get themselves a
hotmail account, but then it's starting to become a real drag.
You're kidding, surely. What's the "privacy" concern with sending an
email? That people will know how to communicate with you? That way
lies madness.
I presume the problem is with people who are scared to reveal their real
name. They have two very easy options: (1) get over it, or (2) get a free
webmail account which identifies as their SN.
