How many email addresses can one person have?

Thu, 07/17/2008 - 20:48 — EleanorCook

I am about to enter the chaos stage of moving. While this is somewhat stressful, I continue to feel pretty good about it. My main worry continues to be about the technology. The other thing is my dogs. More on that in another posting.

I hope my current institution will not simply cut me off - I need a little breathing room to clean out stuff. Where does the time go?

Right now I am managing 4 email accounts and potentially 6 email accounts. These are:

1. My Appstate account (18 years and counting) - Soon to go away
2. My BellSouth DSL account (it's going away soon and no one including me uses it much)
3. My new institution's account (and that is active and hopping now)
4. My gmail account (where I am moving all personal stuff)\
5. Another account on ibiblio where ACQNET and AcqWeb stuff will be
6. I assume there will be an account with my Suddenlink home cable subscription (Cable+Internet+Phone)

I do not see myself directing everything to one place right now, although maybe eventually I will.

Whew!
