in my opinion yahoo now is the most well configured mail.it has more options than the others like pop3,calendar,notes and much more.although gmail is a very good effort.i voted gmail which is growing really fast and will surely be the leader mail in the next months..although it requires some job to add more options like yahoo's ones.we'll see!

Subscribed to Yahoo Mail when I first connected to the internet (many years ago) and have never seen any reason to change from what is a perfectly well working mail system.

And now they offer 250MB as standard it's even better.

hotpop because it is a free POP3 server you then use any e-mail client to connect and download your e-mail. I do not much care for the web based e-mail services as I find thier interfaces klunky.

i use gmail. its the best email provider out there. 1gb of storage and the best spam blocker out there. plus you can also connect it to outlook express if you have it. i dont use it on outlook i just go gmail.com.

ohh if any one wants a gmail account i have 9 invites. so just email me at someguy108@gmail.com and ask for one.
