With 80% of charge backs reportedly originating from major webmail services, more and more e-commerce sites are refusing to allow purchases from these addresses - especially as it is nigh on impossible to trace a customer back through a 'free' email address if they've used a stolen credit card / etc.

Because customers are paying for their redmail.com address (and if they don't pay, their email address doesn't work) merchants can be secure in the knowledge that the email has originated from a verified person / address. Whilst this isn't a cast iron guarantee .. they are more likely to accept orders from a redmail.com address because it isn't a "classic" free account.

Using the server side rules it is possible to whitelist addresses, so even if we consider / score an email as SPAM the customer can still accept mail from certain sources / with specified subjects / etc without it being filtered away.

Just as everyone thought that all the good email addresses had gone, along comes redmail.com meaning people can have an email address in a cool domain name and if they missed the username they really wanted with other webmail services, they have a chance of getting it with redmail.com now if they sign up early.

Customers can upgrade their redmail account by buying more disk space, additional email addresses, and other functionality in the future such as personal web space and mailing lists.
