> With respect to saying it out loud, I occasionally have to repeat my e-mail address once, but that's usually all it takes; we must be dealing with very different people. It's not so much having to repeat myself - it's just me@myname.com - but people who apparently have never encountered an address that isn't @gmail.com etc before, who then want to have a 10 minute Q&A/tutorial session where I explain to them how domain names work, how anyone - yes, even you - can buy a domain, how email works, etc. Some people have just never looked behind the curtain, and I understand their curiosity. It's just sometimes quite annoying when I just need to get on with something.
