    It now indicates that there is a script by putting [JS] next to the title. Links that redirect elsewhere have an arrow in the post title appended! Thanks for the suggestion!

    There is no edit, but you can delete and repost! Just go to your sent mailbox and find the email, click on the mail you sent us, and hit reply. Then type "$DELETEME" as the first t…

    Nice! I hope you'll give this a shot too! :-)

    Agreed. We offer a public API with no access, so there is limited risk and, in addition, we do not use cookies. There are some dangers, but it's really limited in this context! An …

    Sorry about that, a more serious answer: There are already hundreds of thousands of webhosts who offer Javascript hosting - what makes this one any less safe?

    This is a great idea. I've actually started down this path a bit, and will add the actual email relay tomorrow!

    I updated it to hide name and email by default. If people wish to expose their name and email, they can include an email signature! Edit: If you already posted, this page was alrea…

    Unlisted posting is complete. If you send to topic.unlisted@hackerspring.com (or anytopic.unlisted@hackerspring.com) the post will not show up in new/popular/categories. However, i…

    You can now send to tech.unlisted@hackerspring.com and it will not show in the public popular/new/category view. However, it will still show in the view of all posts from your e-ma…

    Sorry dang. I didn't understand why that was being pointed out, but I will keep all of my posts neutral on a go forward basis!

    The checks have changed significantly since we last spoke! Right now there are ~30 conditionals as it relates to determining if an e-mail is legit, and I imagine this will increase…

    This isn't defensive. I'm simply stating that anonymous posting is different from named posting. That said, I will be adding a way to do anonymous posting and unlisted posting toda…

    Tell that to every webhost/webserv in the world. You don't seem to understand how the web works.

    This is silly. Does google tell you if a site is using JS? Does HN? What "abuse" is available? Also, it's been more than 5 minutes. Looks like you are wrong.

    This site isn't an anonymous posting forum. If you want to be anonymous you can use an anonymous e-mail account, but for everyone else it's to speak with your name and your voice. …

    Makes sense and I think that creates a different dynamic and community. You can delete emails by just sending $DELETEME. There are more commands available in https://hackerspring.c…
