e-mail adresses

[Punk Rooster]

Is there a search engine/program, that enables you to look up someones name, & see if they have or what is, their e-mail address? I'm just curious, as I recieved an e-mail to my personal e-mail, from someone I loosely know, yet don't recall giving my address to.

[Wedgie]

Not that Im aware of but spanners do crawl through websites looking for any traces of email addresses and also sometimes fluke you with random addresses.

I could always set up a new email account for ya punky if this person annoys you, how does mailto:punk@rocketrooster.com or perhaps mailto:punk@safooty.net sound?

The e-mail I recieved, was from a customer- not spam, just the fact I don't recall giving them an e-mail address (I rarely hand out my e-mail address, it's not on my business cards), & I wondered whether you can look up peoples e-mail on the net (if you know their full name). I actually have 4 addresses- 3 Hotmail, 1 personal, & I expect garbage in my Hotmail accounts.

I know hence why I answered:

The rest was just off on a similar tangent as to how some people do end up in your inbox.

There is something in msn messenger to do this..? I have come across this before. Somewhere in there....!
Could be hotmail...?

[Dog_ger]

msn messenger, contacts, search for a contact...?

[Punk Rooster]

it was the address which i have my account with (ie bigpond, hotkey, optusnet etc)

they don't sound so good now that you've plastered them on the web for all and sundry...

Nah, I have got spam filters attached to those domains, my email is plastered all over the net but get 2 or 3 spams a day at the very most.

But Punky's not getting spam, just unwarranted emails from a real person...

[Dissident]

Do you receive bulk emails with jokes etc ?
Sometimes some people send out emails to a whole lot of "Friends" who then have all the other people's email addresses. Someone might thing "Oh, that's so and so ... cool, I have their email"

Just another thought.

Yes, you understand Felicity. Wedgie, it would be like me meeting you in your work place environment, seeing Wedgie Q Wedginald at your desk/business card, & next thing you get an e-mail from me, to that address (mailto:wegieqwedginald@bigpond.com.au), with me saying g'day etc. It's not spam, it's not someone randomly typing in addresses, it's someone I'm doing/have done business with, & the only way they'd have my e-mail, is if I gave it to them. I'm just curious, is all- Imay have even given it to them, it's just that I don't recall doing so. If worse comes to worse, I may just ask them!

[Wedgie]

Christ I know and I understand, hence whey I've answered 3.5 times now

Not that Im aware of

Sheesh!

Not a gypsy, just a Trailer Park Boy.

Time to get drunk and stoned.
