Facebook doesn't even have my primary email address.
- camiller 10y agoNot sure why you are getting downvoted, but... Same for me, facebook only has a spamgourmet address for me, and that address is set to only forward email from the facebook domain. Anyone else emailing it is just sending bits into the ineffable aether.
- zulln 10y agoI would set it up to forward everything, and stop that first when it get abused. Now you potentially miss emails sent to that adress if there were to use another adress to send emails with no clear gain.
- camiller 10y agoI always set them up so the first 20 email get forwarded. I'll notice if I stop getting notifications for friends and families birthdays.
- anigbrowl 10y agoWhy would you equate 'the primary email address' with your primary email address rather than the one FB thinks of as the primary? You're like a guy who sees a sign saying 'beware of pickpockets' and boasts about how he's smarter than that because he keeps his money in his shoe.
- zeroer 10y ago> You're like a guy who sees a sign saying 'beware of pickpockets' and boasts about how he's smarter than that because he keeps his money in his shoe. That's a beautiful analogy (and spot on). I'm stealing it.
- anigbrowl 10y agoDid you know that this behavior is widespread enough that pickpockets sometimes put up their own warning signs, so as to observe where people unconsciously touch their wallet through their outer clothes when they encounter the sign?
