I believe there are suppliers of free valid email addresses to spoof into such websites without having to give your private information away thus ending up on email lists sold to all and sundry... Might be an answer to this problem? C+ for email I used mailinator.com, (see their website for full details) bbc have not blacklisted that as tempory email, Mailinator have other domains available as well, use it regularly for such things. For post code use a bbc address - that works |
