    What email service do you use and why?

    I'm asking because since I have had email I have used hotmail, but I'm tired off all the extras they try to push on their users. It's gotten to the point to where you almost have to pay to have email with them (the only thing that is free is recieving and sending messages, and you have a max. storage of 2MB). So as soon as I find a good service, I plan on switching.

    Thanks for your advice.

    Adam,

    What about your ISP? I don't know of an ISP that dosn't supply you with at least one email address.

    As far as the free ones go, I use baptistmail. Its not quite as slick as hotmail, i.e. it dosn't scan for virus. The big advantage of the free web based email services is that when you start to get alot of Spam you can easily switch your address without changing ISPs.

    I use hotmail and yahoo, I try to keep my ISP free from junk mail, so I don't use it a lot. I like an emailt hat will scan for viruses.

    We recently got DSL so we have our e-mail on there for family, close friends, etc. Then we use a hotmail account for those instances when we don't want someone to know our main e-mail address. Like with "one-time" use situations, catalog info., etc.

    I forgot to answer why.

    Why do I use Juno?

    Heck, I don't know. I am too lazy to change to something else.
