Free POP Email

[LocKStocK]

Hi,
Anybody know of a popular, completely free POP3 email service?
Hotmail sucks.

Thank you

yahoo?

 

[LeeJend]

yahoo
netscape
google (sort of, search for and read security issues with their new plan)

I have a Yahoo account to receive my spam. Had it for years, works great.

Hotmail sucks ? Nope !
Works like a charm when the right options are selected.
Only grief, the lack of (free) space, 2Mb is not enough...

uuh.... this topic hasn't had any activity in quite a while.... but what exactly is the info that one would need to set up Outlook to access a spymac account?

 

[dreamliner77]

the addresses of the in/out mail servers

 

[SPeedY_B]

The server you need it mail.spymac.com

I have a spymac account but the only drawback is that's it's sooooooo slow someday's 😱

I don't class hotmail or Yahoo as Pop mail. Outlook/OE recognise them as http email accounts.

They had a lot of trouble when they introduced the "free 1gb" thing, as it went live straight away with no (real) testing, so thousands and thousands of users flocked to the site and joined up just for the mail. I joined up a while ago, yet haven't actually used any of the stuff they give you 😛

 

[Evil Marge]

I joined a few weeks ago and haven't bothered with the other stuff yet either 😀

 

[Jewelzz]

I joined SpyMac a few weeks ago mainly for my Yahoo groups ... SpyMac won't let Yahoo group email go through 😡

This is temporary because there were a few individuals who attempted to damage the system by attempting to overload it with Yahoo Group subscriptions.

The big question is though, can ne of the mentioned accounts be configured to a desktop e-mail application like outlook or mailwasher, them being free. Usually you gotta pay monies for this service.

 

[SPeedY_B]

Yes, spymac is a pop3 service.

Sounds interesting... has google opened their 1GB acounts to public yet? Or is it still beta?
