Anybody else still remember their first e-mail address? What domain did it have?

I picked mine from this Latin American web portal "StarMedia" which apparently still exists? I thought it sounded cool 😅 At least compared to the alternatives. I was NOT going to have something ending in bloody "Hotmail" or worse, "Yahoo."

Back then I used the screen name "Artemis" thinking it sounded like the male version of the Greek hunter goddess (we call her "Artemisa") not knowing it was also female. 🤭

I think my very first email was something on CompuServe, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was... the next one I had was a local Italian ISP, I also can't remember that one 😅
