Yep, I vouch for hotmail and gmail. Gmail is the most popular at the moment in terms of size, ease of setup and mail cap. Hotmail is equally popular, but the visual UI (colors?) is distracting in contrast to gmail's white backing. Also, hotmail does not support IMAP unless to pay $20/yr for hotmail plus.

Both are good and free, and I'm sure hotmail will undergo a lot of revamping for it's IMAP policy now that Windows Phone 7 is announced.

thanks, buddy!

And for the record all spammers and especially those who pay people to spam should be hung, let´s be clear about that.
You should easily be able to send 100 emails a day using Gmail.

And it's "hanged". Being "hung" means something quite different.
No, no, he's right. It's all those enhancement pills they keep offering us, Luke.

I was gonna say the same thing. I never use email services on the Web, I hate them all. I've been using Gmail for years now, haven't had a problem with it. Though I don't send 100 emails per day (what the hell are you doing?). But anyway, I've been using Gmail with Mozilla Thunderbird. I added the minimize to tray add-on so I can know when I get new emails almost instantly, and without keeping the window open.

Then truly these spammers have a cause after all. All along I thought it was spam, but in reality it's just a tight knit group of guys with legit wiener pills and deluxe rolex watches at manufacture's cost.

I, for one, am going to reopen all my spam, starting with my aol account from 1996!

I use Yahoo/hotmail/gmail all for different accounts/purposes. I don't think any of them is radically better than the other.
