Comments on: How to Get a Free E-mail Account

on 8/16/2006 Now you can get GMail for free with your mobile phone. GMail has a lot of great features, and you can set it up with Outlook (Windows) or Mail (Mac OS X). Very easy to set up.

on 3/17/2006 Fastmail lets you know what time the e-mail arrived, plus more importantly, now lets you know if someone has attempted to open your mailbox while you were gone.

on 3/16/2006 The Gmail service is getting better and better by each passing day. Here are the following services that they have to offer (For Free)
1. More than 2.5 GB of mailbox space (and still increasing)
2. Have one Gmail account and use many other accounts (from any other domain) from within that account to send mails using those accounts. (You don't even have to login to those accounts)
3. Introduced Chat from within E-mail.

on 11/22/2005 By not giving out your e-mail address all over the Internet, you can save yourself a lot of spam. If you do need to give out an address, consider using an address from places such as http://www.dodgeit.com or http://www.mailinator.com who offer free throw-away addresses.

on 11/22/2005 Yahoo! is by far the best: it loads fast (even on dial-up) and includes filters, and access to other Yahoo! places, such as Geocities. Hotmail is really, really, bad! Everything that reaches your in-box without the sender's e-mail in your address book will be marked as junk. goowy.com is nice. It's probably unheard of yet, for now. It uses a Flash interface which takes e-mail to the next level. Of course, if you use dial-up, it'll be a long, long wait.

on 11/22/2005 G-Mail (Google Mail), is the best.
It's by invitation only, but if you look around on a few forums, usually there are people who will offer invitations to you.

on 11/22/2005 Before signing up for a Hotmail address, you might want to consider this. Unless you're willing to use the most extreme email filter (which doesn't allow anyone to contact you unless you have their name in your address book), you are likely to get a lot of junk email.

on 11/22/2005 Eudoramail.com is free also.

on 11/22/2005 You can get free e-mail at Yahoo, and many small sites offer e-mail services. There's always the tried-and-true hotmail. You can go to mail.com; it has domain names like doctor.com and insane.com, or you can just do a search for "Free E-mail."

on 11/22/2005 I recommend using www.myownemail.com; they provide you with a large choice of domains for you to choose from, which makes your address more personal. They also run smoothly, have nice options, and have a nice interface.

on 11/22/2005 You'll find over 1,000 free e-mail services reviewed at the Free E-mail Address Directory http://www.emailaddresses.com/
