SILLY!? ARRRbeMail?!
Ohhhhhh you're gonna walk the plank, matey. Just wait until his
Noodleyness hears you...
HA! what are the chances anyone on this list would catch THAT reference??
Anyway, the name you want definitely needs to be something uncommon
enough that a google search would turn up the appropriate pages for
reference and help. Outbox would be a nice name, I agree, but if you
Googled it...I don't think users would find what they wanted to know for
help or reference.
