Way behind on this list and not likely to become active again for the time being. I use myrealbox.com which is free, has pop3, smtp and it is accessible from the web as well. It sometimes is intermittent in it's being available but the price is right! It also screens for viruses and won't send messages to you which contain suspect attachments. go to: http://www.myrealbox.com Amanda Lee Alexandria, VA USA ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ed Barnes" <e_barnes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2002 4:52 PM Subject: Re: any suggestions onf ree email services? Hi, well, depends upon what you are looking for, I am asumming you are asking on here because you would like to be able to use both webmail and pop3 so you can download mail either using a windows mail client or fetchmail on your linux box. Another important question, do you need a provider of free email service which gives you an smtp server to use or can you use your isp's smtp under Windows, of course, this is a non-issue under linux because you have your MTA to handle it. If you are looking for webmail, smtp, and pop, I'd probably recommend: http://www.softhome.net As far as free email service providers the only one I use is: yahoo If you sign up for yahoo delivers you can download mail from pop.mail.yahoo.com I can use the isp's smtp server on Windows and sendmail under Linux. And, either one or the other is always available in my case. Alternately, you never know, somebody also might be willing to give you an account on one of their boxes for this purpose. Good luck and hth.
