Hi Jason,

Believe it or not, I use a free email provider to manage my multiple email addresses! I use Gmail... Gmail ets you manage multiple accounts.

Here's how to do it. In Gmail, go to "Settings", then "Accounts". From there, you can add multiple email addresses... (If you don't have a Gmail account, to get one go to www.gmail.com and click on "Sign up for Gmail".)

So I do (almost) everything from within Gmail. I just change where the email is "from" to whichever email address is appropriate...

I also have my various email addresses, old and new, forwarded to my Gmail account. So I can handle it all from one place.

Also, Gmail has a pretty good spam filter. That's what really "got me" to use it in the first place. (I get a couple hundred spam emails every day, because I like to keep my email address public so anyone can reach me. I used to spend 20-30 minutes every day just deleting spam! And that was after I was already using a spam-filter!)

So there you go... That's the detail on my email!

I hope it's helpful.
