Pobox.com promised its customers a lifetime email address, and found a loyal following immediately (check out the contact information in Ed Summers's nomination). In addition to email addresses and accounts, their customers requested reliable email-based discussion forums, mailing lits, and newsletters, so they created Listbox.com. Philadelphian Helen Horstmann-Allen has been president of IC Group, the home of Pobox.com and Listbox.com, since 2000; prior to that, she was its director of operations, and she's been in charge of Pobox.com since 1997. She's in love with Philadelphia and food -- thus [http://phillyfoodie.com/ Philly Foodie] -- and can be found on [https://twitter.com/philliefoodie Twitter], too.
