I use my real name, but if you are talking about free email accounts, like
hotmail and Yahoo.
Well I have got an unlimited internet account, but for an extra charge my
service provider would give me a email account and web space with them, but at
extra cost. So I said I will just use the access and forget about giving me an
email or web space. Since I can get a free one on the net.

Thus I have free email accounts with Hotmail and another free email account
which I use for backup. So how would you expect to handle my situation.

I have in the past tried to gain access to places that only want email account
that were not from free providers, Like ICC, So in those cases I could not use
their free seven day trial, I either had to pay up or go without if I wanted to
join them. Any other place with rules like that, I do not, because I cannot go
into, so I miss out.
