Below are some very useful e-mail addresses for various functions.  You may want to add them to your address book for future use.

  • [email protected]—Converts any attached Microsoft Visio or Word file (including the 2007/.docx kind) to PDF files, and supports multiple file attachments. Ignore the "iphone" in the address, as it works from any device or computer, but only supports files up to 1 MB in size.
  • [email protected]—Converts Microsoft Word, Excel or PowerPoint files to PDFs. Like the other Koolwire addresses below, it accepts files up to 10 MB in size.
  • [email protected]—Convert PDFs to Word or Rich Text Format files.
  • [email protected]—Convert WAV files to MP3s.
  • [email protected]—Convert MP3s to WAV files.
  • [email protected] - Send a PDF document to this email address as an attachment and it will come back as a plain text file.
  • [email protected] - Send an email with the URL of the web page in the Subject field (e.g. www.cnn.com) and you’ll soon find a copy of that web page in your Inbox. A perfect option when there’s no Internet access in the area or access is restricted (for instance, you want to read the BBC homepage in China).
  • [email protected] - it will also fetch websites for you through email though in this case, the site address should go in the body of the email message.

Verify Your E-mail's Been Read

SpyPig is a simple email tracking system that sends you a notification email as soon as the recipient opens and reads your message.

SpyPig allows you to embed a small or invisible picture inside an e-mail. When that e-mail is opened in an e-mail client that supports loading of web pictures (most modern e-mail clients) SpyPig logs that access and allows you to see when that e-mail was opened. Actually works the same way a lot of advertising and spam e-mails work, this is how they know your e-mail address exists. Now you can use the technology for yourself.
