The benefits of a short email address are its novelty, its memorability to others and its fewer characters to type on mobile devices. However, short email addresses are rare to come by nowadays. Most usernames are quickly unavailable upon domain release by known providers, and non-existent email addresses leads to verification issues.

The solution is to use short addresses by unknown providers. The risk is that these addresses cannot be guaranteed for long-term use. It is therefore useful for IM addresses, short-term anonymous registrations and email forwarding.


Short Addresses

@g.pl

@w.cn

@k.ro

@24.com
Poor email features.

@333.org

Signup to MSN
  • Sign up with a short email address. Providers and features do not matter. Use it only for MSN.
  • Register the address as a Windows Live ID : https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx
  • A verification email will be sent to the inbox. Activate Windows Live ID and log in to MSN.
  • Email and storage use is at your discretion. Enjoy.

Register a short address first, register it with Windows Live, then click on the verification email sent to the short address.

But I can't get in to the email, says I need to register one when I already did.

You're welcome.

All readers, please note that I tested these services but don't use any as my personal MSN.
