Hi Rach
Don't you already have one set up?
When you signed on to Expats didn't you get a mailbox address '[email protected]?'
I'll send a test message to you - check your 'My Forum' > 'webmail'

Some browsers cannot access certain website email addresses, for the peace of mind I'd set up a Hotmail or Yahoo email address that can be accessed from everywhere in the world, even the smallest internet cafes. Here's the links:
www.hotmail.com
www.yahoo.com
www.hotmail.com
www.yahoo.com

Will open one in a moment....cheers all.
Can we all please make sure we pass on our e-mail address.
I have made so many great friends on here, I would be devasted if I lost contact.
i get the impression that once you start to settle in Oz, you rely less and less on this site. Natural if you think about it.
Couldnt cope without my `support group` on here.....and you know who you are!!!!!!!!

I have had an acount with hotmail for about five years, so the whole world has probably got the address by now . At one point I used to get 20+ spam messages a day, but now I only get a couple per week max. They have new filters and have improved the anti-spam software they use tremendously. Also they are about to raise the storage level by a huge amount to compete with the gmail service coming from Google. That siad yahoo is probably not much different
