    Good Points: Helpful support team with near instant replies to queries. They are in Canada and can be contacted by 'phone if necessary.


    Bad Points: They get targetted by spammers who use the generic @pobox.com to generate spam mail. Mostly it is handled appropriately.


    General comments: I have been with pobox, now, for 8 years and I can honestly say they have never let me down with their redirection service. There's the occasional glitch but what company doesn't have that? The spam screening is superb and, having an e-mail address out in the wild for 8 years it is bound to be harvested. I only get one or two a month by-passing their screening. I thoroughly recommend them and have done to several friends all of whom are pleased with the service.

    I have used POBOX for about ten years. They are expensive, but reliable.

    I have recently had troubles that require intervention from POBOX. They have no phone number I can call it seems, just an email address.

    I have now written over a dozen emails. They admit their system is failing, but I have not yet been told why. Level two support has been "looking" at the problem for over two weeks. They are being unresponsive otherwise.

    I do not recommend pobox.com.

    I've been using pobox.com for over 8 years (they've been in place for about 10 years). Over the years, I've had pobox forward e-mails to several "end-point" e-mail clients (yahoo, hotmail, gmail). Over that time, I've been able to keep the same "public" e-mail address, while using the backend tool that I prefer (currently gmail).

    Also, during this time I've had no issues with availability that I can recall, and have recommended it to several friends. The biggest issues (outlined above) are ...
