ok, im sick and tired of Micro$oft$ BS - especially with Hotmail, the only reason I still have hotmail is becasue ive had it since like 98 or 99 and everyone and their mother has my email address.... but now im jsut fed up with it....can anyone suggest a FREE email service that allows me to use it as a pop3 account, and store my email and not hassel me everyother day about upgradin for jsut $19.95 a year - stupid Bill Gates, but hey, id still take his job anyday - anyways.....suggestions please thanks
i read some where that youre going to have to pay for yahoo pretty soon too - anyways, between yahoo and hotmail theres way too much spam, and whats the difference between outllok and outlook express?
Just tested an old yahoo email ive got and the pop3 works just fine (free) but i see what you mean about the spam.
are u paying for that hotmail account?? then y complain about banners.....their in it to make money...not to go out of busniess.....ur just getting waht u payed for....
banners arent the problem, thats fine they can have as many asd they want (and no I am not paying for hotmail), the problem that i have is the fact that spammers have next to taken over hotmail and that hotmail has put major restrication on how the account can be used unless you pay for it...but thats my venting. im just mad that theyre taking away options. thats the first rule of something or other dont take away what people have yada yada yada something to that effect.
the worst part is that they fill your inbox with emails that say "running out of space? why not upgrade"
can't you just store your e-mails on your own computer?,then you whould have more space in your hotmail account
The best email client I've found is Eudora. The free version is ad supported, but thats hardly a massive problem.
yahoo definitely cut off pop3 access to their servers months ago... hence why i stopped using yahoo, msn i just restrict it to mails from people on my address book (no one) and not even hotmail member service emails get to me... i don't use msn at all anymore, and i rarely check my yahoo account... i always use my school account or my personal account.... 500MB mailboxes own
Lycos do pop3 e-mail, t's not the best in the world as it sometimes doesn't always work when you want it to.
YAHOOO does offer pop3 for free, I just did it through MS Outlook 10 minutes ago. This is yahoo.co.uk I dont know if yahoo.com is different.
The one that annoys me is the "Looking for Love?" popup.. makes you look like a perv if someone sees it on your monitor...
