Yeah

I could change it to daftdoggy.com Still got that domain doing nothing. Dickheed is a bit obvious.


EDIT: Hmmmm. The publishing of emails begging for a date/sex could be quite amusing. Shouldn't be too hard to automate. Blanking out phone numbers, changing names etc....

No worries =)
How are you pulling the emails, what you using?
( G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Tue 13 Jul 2010, 10:50, Reply)

It's
just a simple auto-responder with a catch all email address so that any email sent to the domain gets sent to the catch all address.

To pull the names I've got a text file with thousands of baby names. I could just use that and string compare.

It's certainly do-able. And might be a laugh

Oh'aye', I get the catch-all thing.
What language you writting in? I've never used PHP to grab POP3/IMAP. Did you write a class/series-of-functions to do that, and then CRON it every now and then? I wanna work with text messages, I think there is potential to offer something to my clients there which has a bit of 'wow' factor, only I want to do it without killing my funds, short-codes are (quite rightly) well expensive.

I'm INSPIRED to do some coding today, might make an iPhone app over the next couple of days, I got 3 days to 'wow' a client even more than what I've currently done; I won't make any cash on this one, but the resell value on my current project is huge. Basiclly, I'm gonna make a web-app that'll let you order a cab in north london, I fucking love the HTML5 spec about Geocoding.

Cron
And adapted this lot:

www.weberdev.com/get_example-4015.html

If I take it further I'll use simplehtmldom.sourceforge.net/ If you ever have the need to parse html then use that baby. It's a bit tricky to get your head around but once you know it you can do all sorts of sweet things with it. I've written a few screen-scraping apps with it. Including one to search b3ta that tells you whether you're a twat or not - haven't published that one yet...

Cheers
