You could get a hotmail or googlemail (gmail) email account *now* to use as your contact one for GR. Then you can access it regardless of who your internet provider is.

I find it useful to have one of these, used only for FH purposes. You could also make up your own anonimous 'handle' to go with it!

Dont forget to let your contacts know your new email addy when you get it.

I have a hotmail and a gmail addy, plus 3 with my internet provider, although I have forgotten the password for one of those.

Huia.
