 You're suggesting folks ahould memorize your email address,
 rather than put it in their address book?  Instead, how about
 suggesting that the authors and software-engineering managers
 of Microsoft's email programs and address book should check
 their work before forceably installing it on our computers, no
 choice allowed, by the repeatedly-convicted monopoly company?

 p.s. I've hand-inspected and erased more than 2300 virus emails
 in my non-microsoft mailbox in the last 16 hours.  This was made
 necessary in order to read the 35 legitimate emails I received.
 I'm beginning to get really angry now.

 Thanks,
