BigMailBox.com Inc. (www.bigmailbox.com), the Internet's premiere free Web-based e-mail service provider, announced its lineup of official and fan-based music-oriented Web sites that use the free BigMailBox.com service: kidrock.com, dr-dre.com, alanismorissette.net, greendayweb.com, tupac.com, U2.org, natalieimbruglia.com, thefragile.com (Nine Inch Nails), collective-soul.com and hole-interactive.com (Courtney Love), to name just a few.

Kid Rock.com, the official site of the infamous rock group, was one of the first music groups to incorporate the BigMailBox experience to its Web site. Following the high-profile appearances of Kid Rock on the MTV awards show, e-mail registrations nearly tripled overnight. Even tupac.com, the official memorial site of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur, continues to see signups that would make most online marketers ecstatic.

The site built to tout America's No. 1 selling album Backstreet Boys' ``Millennium'' is passing out bsbmillennium.com e-mail accounts by the thousands. Newer pop groups like The Moffatts, are increasing their audience daily as loyal fans sign up for their own themoffatts.com e-mail address.

Music portals that are using BigMailBox to add stickiness to their site include: raveworld.net, reggaemail.com, onlinerock.com, rapworld.com, rapcity.com and mp3web.com. Soon-to-be-launched BigMailBox clients such as rickymartinonline.com and madonnaweb.com are sure to be the popular e-mail addresses of the new millennium.

Having a loyal fan base that sends and receives e-mail from a particular Web site is a marketing dream come true. ``Artists and record labels can distribute information and promote merchandise to a receptive audience -- literally thousands of people who are genuinely interested in the message,'' said project manager Robert Walther.

``Webmasters are enjoying the benefits of having a 'close and personal relationship' with their fans -- at the same time they're gathering valuable detailed demographic information and promoting products through BigMailBox's customizable signature text lines,'' Walther explained.

BigMailBox accounts can be quickly and seamlessly integrated into any Web site thanks to 24-hour customer support and special customization features. All Webmasters who sign up for a BigMailBox account receive a percentage of the advertising inventory. In addition, Webmasters receive banner tracking information and powerful administrative tools.

BigMailBox allows individuals and businesses of any size to offer free Web-based e-mail at their Web sites. BigMailBox offers all of the best e-mail features of Hotmail (MSFT), Message Media (MESG), Yahoo Mail (YHOO), Critical Path (CPTH), Yesmail (YESM) and Mail.com (MAIL).
