As an added benefit for our "Self-committed" [paid] and Permanently Insane account holders, InsaneJournal offers a neat e-mail alias system. When you have a Self-committed or Permanently Insane account, people can send mail to your @insanejournal.com e-mail address, which is in the form of exampleusername@insanejournal.com , where "exampleusername" should be replaced with your username.
Any mail sent to your exampleusername@insanejournal.com address will be forwarded to whatever e-mail address you have listed on your Edit Personal Information page (http://www.insanejournal.com/editinfo.bml). There is no added mailbox to check, no POP3 server to connect to, and no extra hassle of setting up another e-mail account.
As an added security measure, you can select the level of visibilty of your e-mail addresses, as seen on your User Info page (http://www.insanejournal.com/userinfo.bml). On the Edit Personal Information page (http://www.insanejournal.com/editinfo.bml), look for the option labeled "Show your contact information on your InsaneJournal?", and choose the privacy settings that suit you best.
