UK's prmailbox.com crosses the pond to US
Free email service for public relations professionals finds favour (favor?)
in the United States

Web-based email service prmailbox.com (http://www.prmailbox.com) has
registered its first US-based subscribers - even though the service
is designed to be an all-British affair and is yet to be officially
launched!
The free service, part of the PR Press Network (http://www.prpn.com)
is aimed at UK-based public relations professionals and has been marketed
to a select crowd of the industry's main players in the UK.
"We always knew the service would prove useful to public relations
professionals outside of the UK as it offers the 'dot com' prmailbox
domain name, rather than the 'dot co dot uk' address," explained
PR Press Network owner/operator Tracey Hopkin. "However, the take
up we're seeing is happening a lot sooner than we ever anticipated.
"Of course, it's pretty hard to keep anything under wraps in the
Internet age, so we're just going to have to revise our email traffic
expectations to accommodate international subscribers, because we're
not about to turn anyone away if they find the prmailbox.com service
useful."
