Well, if you really aren&#39;t picky, there&#39;s always good old Hotmail. ;)

What&#39;s the problem with Yahoo mail I.am?

Sure their site sucks but the mail service is great. I&#39;ve had the same account for over two years and never get any spam, mind you i&#39;m careful who i give my address to. The free account has 5mb (compared with hotmails 1 mb) of storage, pop access and great spam filters. I recommend it.

Actually, Hotmail has 2 megs. Just thought I&#39;d point that out. ;)

Actually, while i&#39;m hear. I hope shn doesn&#39;t mind me asking in his(/her? :P ) thread. What&#39;s the best email account, including those you have to pay a membership for?

I&#39;d like a permanent account that&#39;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&#33; mail too. Hardly any spam.

Another one I only just found is at Mail2World (http://www.mail2world.com). 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]&#33;
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 &#39;titanium&#39; 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&#39;ve been using the same hotmail account, for that purpose, for about 4 years now. It&#39;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.

The only downside is the transfer allowance- no more than 20mb/hour, and 40mb/month, never sent anything bigger than a couple of megs myself though.

Thanks again. I did check out the free account but it&#39;s not really what i&#39;m looking for. I don&#39;t mind paying a small ammount, if it means i don&#39;t get spam. This now will be my permanent account for friends, family and work. I&#39;ve had to change account a couple of times before and it&#39;s a pain in the arse.

There is no problem with yahoo&#33; Even I have an account on yahoo for four years now and it is absolutely great&#33;
The reason why it was hilarious was, coz I assumed he was looking for more advanced unlimited ad-less email account. Everyone knows about yahoo and hotmail. If he had an account on snailmail.ch which I have as well, you are looking for much more than just a 5 mb email inbox.
Yahoo is my personal fav. as well, but i dont give that address to anyone for obvious reasons. To help you out, use this to avoid spam even if you want to use your own email.
