Farewell, beloved email address

Posted on Thu Jun 6, 2019

In a few days I will have to say goodbye to my main email address of more than twenty years; I really liked this address, and I feel affection for it. The service provider of @poste.it will shut off its email services branch. Damn! I trusted that company to be in the email business forever. But nothing is forever…

This address is everywhere in the source code I posted on the Internet. Double damn! I will have to default to the Gmail address for my software development needs. I’m not that fond of Alphabet Inc., but life is full of compromises.

In the upcoming days I will try to set up new email addresses for private use. Maybe I will buy a domain… there are some good offerings!
