Good morning gurus, workers, and noobies,
I am old but am called a noobie from time to time, so don't be offended.
I get approximately 3,000 emails per day in error (because of a domain name I own). I have tried auto responses with nothing but a one line note. I have tried explanations of why I got their email, to why they didn't get a "mailer-daemon undeliverable illegible meaningless" message.
I continue to get thank you notes, but no spam fearing company will help me because of all the 'wannabe marketers' turned spamcops.
They explain that nobody believes anyone does a true good turn for anyone in the email industry. I understand, they need job security because they cannot market successfully, but I really am trying to help these people fix and protect their beloved, old, simple, personal email addresses that they have had since they discovered email!
Many have their own name without 5 or 10 numbers after it. I'm serious, John@LLL.com is not giving up his email!
Any ideas? (I registered the name for my own reasons, without knowing at the time that the large internet service provider and email provider was related to the email errors I get).
It used to be 10k per day but the company was bought out 10 years ago and has been steadily 2500 to 3500 per day without fail. I have saved the addresses thinking one day I would send all 2 million of them a note about their lost emails (which were trashed - forwarding them would have entailed manual search and replace).
Thanks :)

What's your question? What are you hoping to accomplish? Are you looking for a solution so you don't continue to receive these emails? If so, contact whoever hosts your email server. The email server can be set up so you never see any emails except the ones that go to the addresses you've set up for yourself.

I read what you wrote twice and still have no idea what you're asking.

Are you emailing people to register their name as a URL?
Are people emailing you about a URL that you own?
Are you looking for names to open a service soliciting people to register their names?

Are you asking what to do about spam emails?
Are you the one spamming people?

I can say this, every time someone comes on the forum with "I really am trying to help people...", they are usually spamming but in their own mind justify it as if they are on some noble quest to make the world a better place.

I'm going to give the benefit of the doubt that you aren't that guy and ask that you explain a little clearer how we may be able to help you?
