Matchmaker.com

Jose, in Dec Zixi announced a "deal" with matchmaker.com (headquartered in Texas) to promote Zixmail on matchmaker's site with a Zixmail download button and to recommend Zixmail to its more than 1 million members.

According to matchmaker's own disclosed info, it has about 270,000 active users, far less than 1 million. Why the discrepancy? Because free trial members are purged from database after 30-days if they don't convert to regular paid members. Counting registered members is like counting all cars that have once passed through a toll road to project toll revenue.

More shocking fact is Zixmail is not being promoted to its members, as far as I know. And there's no Zixmail download button. In response to an inquiry, a matchmaker personnel stated that their current email system is secure, and they're not recommending any email encryption package.

So, what's the deal with matchmaker.com?

Regards,

Tom
