This may be a help girls and boys. If you go on to 'mail.com' you can choose from loads of different 'name@pick an address.com' addresses.
I have four of them;
two as 'name'@bikerider.com (two different names obviously),
a third; 'name'@elvisfan.com;
& 'name'@muslim.com. (No, I am not a follower of Allah, the address was part of their offerings so I chose one).
I have used them for a number of years now without any problems. They cost nothing and they don't 'die off' if you don't log in every day/week/month.
Because the site is about to close for refurb I checked my addy's and one of them I had not been onto for ten months. It was still alive.
Also their header page has excellent news updates.
Give it a try, I'm more than happy with their service.
Graham.
