I havent run into that situation and I havent done web design for a client yet

who wasnt online.

Its such a small probability that its worth deleting the garbage that people use

those accounts for.

If a possible client is at the library for the purpose of surfing the net, he

probably doesnt have a computer.

Therefore chances are he wouldnt have a budget that could handle my services.

Besides I cater to gaming, entertainment and production corporations Im

interested in working on projects with.

Its more tight nit then that. Anyway I havent solicited much web design since I

usually

work in CD development and traditional illustration/concept design.

Not really, I spend more time reading mail than sending. Any time I  have to

spend mailing is usuallytrying to help people on this list. Any other mail I

send is small and usually personal. I handle

clients at my corporate studio with another account and its own mail and address

book.

Huh?, How do you get access to the net without a service provider anywhere in

the world?

Hotmail or private? I was simply stating a fact about those accounts and what

they're known for.


Personally I think people who use those accounts are usually trying to stay

anonymous

and cant be trusted anyway, but thats due to the spammers that jump and run on

those

accounts.


I definetly wouldnt try to sell my services mailing a possible client with

Hotmail.


Nothin' personal
