Hi-

I have been using e4ward for about a half a year now and think it is
great. Once I set up my accounts, my spam has plummeted to close to
nothing. I have a few suggestions for the product.

1. I would like to access a report that shows me how many emails I
have received for each forward. I would use this to weed out those
forwards that are no longer used. It would be sufficient to get a list
of forwards that have not seen any emails in the past year or so.

2. I am ambivalent about the catch-all feature and currently it is set
to bounce. It would be great when I am on the phone to the big box
store to give them the email address bigBo...@me.e4ward.com,
however I am concerned that an unethical store would start sending me
email to unethic...@me.e4ward.com or maybe m...@me.e4ward.com. I
would be more likely to use the catch-all feature if I could tell that
a catch-all occurred, perhaps a list on the website, perhaps an email
for each occurrence. Then I could later add bigBo...@me.e4ward.com
to my forwards. One other thing this would do is allow me to capture a
list of all current forwards for my home machine for all the reasons
that people backup data stored in the cloud.

Thanks.

-Bill

I like Bill's suggestions, and would like to add another ...

As a guest user (free account), I would like to see how much of my
monthly bandwidth allocation of 50MB has been used at any time. This
will help me make informed decisions: about signing up, pruning my
aliases, etc.

Perhaps this information can be included with Bill's first report on
traffic per alias, so that a total of all traffic will provide the
information I'm after. You could even make all this information
available in the _forwards_ page that already lists all my aliases ..
just another column, "this month's traffic".

And if you could make the entire table sortable on any column then
that would be even better ;o)

Finally, a big thank you for the excellent service! I've been using it
for a year or two now, and can't stop telling my friends about it.

You can see how much bandwidth has been used by clicking on "Account"
in the left-hand list of links.
