Actually, Hotmail has 2 megs. Just thought I'd point that out.

Oops.

Actually, while i'm hear. I hope shn doesn't mind me asking in his(/her?

) thread. What's the best email account, including those you have to pay a membership for?

I'd like a permanent account that's not dependant on my isp where you can maybe pick your own name (like [email protected]), has a large inbox and pop access.

I like Yahoo! mail too. Hardly any spam.

Another one I only just found is at Mail2World. Not sure exactly how good it is, but seems ok so far.

I tried another.com when it was free.
You can have whatever email you like.
I had [email protected]!
You have to pay now, though.
Also, I do NOT recommend Homail (what I call Hotmail), coz its an easy target for hackers.

Yup, perfect, thanks for the tip mate. I just signed up for the 'titanium' account, with 25mb storage, for about £12 a year.

Here if anyone else is interested are the account types.

I dunno, Hotmail does have its uses, like everytime you join a forum or website.

I've been using the same hotmail account, for that purpose, for about 4 years now. It's funny how much spam that account gets, usually round about 30 messages a day. I never check it so it gets deleted by msn. Also i use it for messenger. To avoid getting notified everytime i get spam, i set my inbox to exclusive.
