Let your email find you anywhere
The .name address is the world's first personal address that can be used with any email service in the world. This means you can send and receive messages from any computer connected to the Internet, with any service, including Hotmail, Yahoo, AOL and from home, work, school, an Internet café, a friend's house or any other computer in the world with an Internet connection.

Any message you receive will arrive where you want it, so you have full flexibility to redirect your message. This means you can always keep the same address, even if you change work, change school, or change your webmail account. Your mail, sent to your .name address, will arrive at your account no matter what it is.
This is great for people who use more than one computer, travel frequently, or don't even own a computer.



Get a permanent e-mail address, for life
When you get a .name, you choose a permanent e-mail address that will never change as long as you continue to use .name. This is great for people who:

Want to switch Internet Service Providers. Your .name address will be the same no matter how you access the Internet, so you don't have to worry about retrieving messages from your old address or notifying friends, family and associates of a new e-mail address. You are free to select any Internet Service Provider that suits your needs.
Are thinking about changing jobs. If you switch jobs, you lose access to the e-mail account provided by your employer. .name offers a way to stay in touch with important contacts.
Leave School or University. When you leave school for the summer, travel abroad or graduate, you may no longer have access to your school e-mail account. With a .name address, your friends will always know where to reach you
Change webmail providers. Your .name address can be used with any webmail in the world, including Hotmail, Yahoo, AOL, GMX, or any other. The .name address can forward to any of these, and you can switch between webmails as you like. Your friends can always reach you with the same .name address, and you can choose the email provider as you like.
Are running out of space on their webmail account. If you are close to running out of space on your Hotmail account, for example, you can go over to your Yahoo account for a while, instead of deleting messages. Your friends can continue to send mail to your .name, and you can receive it where you have space!



Your e-mail is private and secure
When you sign up for .name, you choose your personal username and password. The only way you can access your account is by using the password you select. This means that only you will have access to your .name account, even if you use a computer at a public terminal or a friend's house. You will use this username and password when you change your end-point address at any time.

Because the messages in your .name account are not stored centrally, but sent on to the location you determine, you don't have to worry about any single provider losing important information if something happens to your computer. You are free to switch to any mailbox at any time.


.name is fast and easy to use
It is easy to use a .name and it is quick and easy to change forwarding address, for both email and web, at any time. You can log in to your account at www.name and change the end-point addresses for email and web in few seconds, from any computer.


Keep your personal e-mail separate from your work e-mail
People who use e-mail from work will find it convenient to keep their personal messages separate from their work messages.

With a personal address on .name, you can have your personal messages sent through .name to arrive at work from 9 to 5, and to another account outside working hours. All you need to do is to set up the forwarding to the location you like. Even if you should change your job, your personal correspondence will be arriving to your new job, but to the same .name address.

Therefore, you will not need to stress with informing personal contacts about a new address when changing jobs. They will continue to send to your .name address like before, but you will receive the email at your new job, if you like.
