Where can I get a "Buffett-esque" email address?

something like "flipflops@thebeach.com" or "flipflops@island.com". I found this website that was "@parrothead.com", but there email server crashed and they haven't gotten it back up yet and I'm not sure if they are going to. Thanks in advance!

Easiest way is to buy your own domain and host it on a sight offering email services as part of the package. Well maybe not the easiest.

You can also search for free email servers on the internet, many have a choice of domains you can use for your email address, use there services or forward the mail to another account.

It may take some searching, but you may find one.

Also many websites off email services, I have picked up a @igolf.com, ratherbegolfing, @ratherbesailing.com and a few other addresses in the past at no cost.
Search around, you may find what you are looking for.

I found one! It just so happens to be a pretty good one too. It's free to sign up and you have an option to upgrade. I went ahead and did the upgrade so I wouldn't have to deal with ads and pop-ups. Since I do most of my stuff through my mobile phone, with the upgrade I was able to do more with less hassel. A cool feature that comes with the free version is email notification. If you have a cell phone or pager, nowadays it's likely to have it's own email address, and if it can receive text, you'll get a notification that you have new mail. I'm really enjoying it and I figured most would on this forum, even if it's only to have the word "beach" in your email address! Here's the site.

PS. If you sign up, your address would be "yourname@beach-mail.com"
