Interested in an exclusive Lyneham village email address? Tired of trying to remember long Wanadoo, Tiscali, AOL, NTL, BTOpenworld or Compuserve addresses? Then read on ...

Since the Lyneham Village Online website was launched in January 2002 , we have been rapidly building the website to help the community and now we can promote the idea of village email addresses. This is a unique idea that helps us to fund the general running costs website and help local charities too. Whether you're an individual or running a business, helping to organise a community club or society, a village email address could work for you!

In this section, we hope to explain everything necessary for you to go ahead and reserve a Lyneham village email address for your own use. If you find there is something that we have not explained, contact us and we'll do our best to sort it.

If you have friends in Lyneham who might be interested in the idea of a village email address, please let them know about this section. We have only 200 addresses available at the moment, so why not be one of the first to have these village email addresses. Instructions and details from links below...
