Get an 'RAFMTD' email address

Do you currently have an email address that looks something like this...................

joe_bloggs1969@longdomainname.co.uk

.............. a bit of a mouthful isn't it?

Do you change your email address every time you change your Internet Service Provider?

If so, help is now at hand, how cool would it be to have joe@rafmtd.co.uk ?

O.K. So your name isn't Joe!! but you get the idea.

You can send and receive mail using the online mail Portal from anywhere in the World, alternatively (Or as well as) you can configure your email client i.e. Outlook Express to manage your account (Details on how to set up Outlook Express can be found below).

So how much is this address going to cost me ?

'RAFMTD' email addresses are only available to Full Members and cost an additional £2.95 per year. I regret I cannot make this facility available to Non Members as it is not cost effective, but for a total £7.90 per year you would have full access to all the content of the RAFMTD website and  your own 'RAFMTD' email address.

Please note: To maintain the email address you must renew your membership annually along with the email renewal.
