Hi,
anyone got any ideas on the best/worst email provider I am changing mine as am fed up with all the spam mail all suggestions welcome :y
-
Personally I use IncrediMail Deluxe, which I find excellent and gives me no problems whatsoever :y :y
-
For Business I use my own one, for personal I use Mail.com, free version, imap and pop3 included.
Comes with a large choice of @ address and free online storage and just works

You haven't said if you want webmail type thing (EG: Hotmail, Gmail etc) or IMAP / POP
If you are after webmail I can really recommend Myway.com. My Mrs is technophobic and she likes it ok. I also have an account with them, zero spam.
http://www.myway.com/

I use gmail for all non-work stuff, as use Google for all my syncing needs. Calendar, Contacts, bookmarks, all in one place, so no matter what device I use, its all there

Spam is mainly generated because of users not being careful to be honest, don't be too willing to enter your e-mail address into any old site ;)
-
thanks Tunnie I try not to enter my email address anywhere if I can help it but sometimes you have to and then end up with a load of unwanted emails :y ;D
-
Gmail is the way to go. Offers lots more besides just an email account
-
That is why I have 2 email addresses, one for close people and one for iffy websites like gocompare etc.

sounds like a plan ;D ;D

I use several, only family and friends get my real one. Which I manage.
As always, I'm wary of Google for any storage, as they are not a charity, and my private emails are not for them to analyse. But I do use them for receiving spam (ie, online shopping, site signups etc).
-
thanks for all the input ladies and gents will do some searching later and see what I come up with ;D ;D ;D
-
I've had the same hotmail address for nearly 15 years. It's easy to remember and all my friends know it. :)
Microsoft however have decided in a classic case of corporate BS to rebrand hotmail.com as outlook.com and I get encouraged now and again when I log in to change my address!!! :(
I've resisted so far but I'm sure at some stage it will be done for me.... Aaaaaaaah!!!! >:(

Yep
I've had two email addresses for ages
One "proper" one using my own name etc, for proper communication, not much crap
Another Hotmail one for other stuff, not my real name, tons of crap.
Easy really.

I just use MS Outlook with my BT account. I can access throgh BT Yahoo or Outlook itself. Never had any trouble with junk/spam. Yeah, it comes in but goes to a seperate folder. I have never set the thing up (shut up vamps and cleggy ;D) but all the rubbish goes to the junk folder. Often wondered how that happens ???
-
I use ymail (yahoo). No problems and very little spam
-
Your current broadband provider should offer free email with a web interface and POP3 interface for Outlook . Outlook is the best email program if you want to store, file and search emails rather than just send, read and delete.
If you buy yourself a domain name for £4 a year (b4ndit.co.uk is available) you can keep anything@b4ndit.co.uk for life and change your broadband suppliers every year.
