 +[06] CAN I USE EMAIL WITH '@LOGIN.FREESHELL.ORG' OR '@LOGIN.SDF-EU.ORG'?
  
 +     Yes you can!  This falls under the Virtual POP3 Mailbox (VPM)
 +     service.  This is the same feature that VHOST members have.
 +
 +     Basically, your subdomain 'yourlogin.freeshell.org' or
 +     'youlogin.sdf-eu.org' is FREE and is setup when your run
 +     'addlink' You can join the VPM membership level and then
 +     have 20 VPMs associated with your free domain name!
 +
 +     Say you are 'Bob Grady' and your user id is 'grady' You create
 +     a subdomain 'grady.freeshell.org' for your family.  You can then
 +     create VPMs for your entire family!
 +
 +     You could have:
 +
 +     bob@grady.freeshell.org
 +     mom@grady.freeshell.org
 +     dad@grady.freeshell.org
 +
 +     The same thing applies to your church!  With the user id 'fbcd'
 +     which could be 'First Baptist Church of Dulles' .. with VPM you
 +     could create:
 +
 +     rector@fbcd.freeshell.org
 +     vicar@fbcd.freeshell.org
 +     bishop@fbcd.freeshell.org
 +     cantor@fbcd.freeshell.org
 +     acolyte@fbcd.freeshell.org
 +     
 +     And so on!
 +
 +     But even more important, the free subdomain is all yours.  By default
 +     'ANYTHING@fbcd.freeshell.org' would go to 'fbcd' mailbox.  This helps
 +     in guarding against spam, as then you would be able to use a random
 +     username for say a website query.  You could then filter on that
 +     username to block any spam, et cetera.
 +     
 +     You can use the 'mkvpm' command to manage your mailboxes.  For
 +     more information, checkout the 'VHOST' section of the FAQ.
 +
 +     All VPM mailboxes (active and inactive) including their sizes and
 +     last time/date of writing can be seen using the 'vpmstat' command.
 +
 +     Old or large mailboxes can be cleared out with the 'vpmclear' command.
