a bunch of my fellow recent graduates have been looking for free email accounts.
they were all upset with hotmail and yahoo. anyone have any reasons NOT to set up a mail.com account?

thanks for any info you got.
 
A lot of pop-ups, and no POP3 (at least for the free version). But mailbox size is pretty large. And lots of domain names.

Otherwise OK.

Seems to be slow in the afternoon, but reasonably fast in the evening. Pop-ups are a pain, but any decent anti pop-up software should fix that.
 
if you can read russian (or if you're good at guessing) mail.ru is good.
has POP support too, and kinda large inbox (12mb IIRC)
 
Does anyone know a program that is FREE that work like yahoopop for yahoo but is for Mail.com.

PS
I already know of WEb2pop and it will be installed on multiple computers for friends/family. It will be too expensive

Thanks

 
I have webmail & pop mail if you really want an email addy... only problem is I don't know if you'd want an @paulsonator.com addy...
 
Whatever you do, do NOT sign up with mail.com. It is pure sh!t. Checking email in the afternoons? forget it. I am trying to switch but I am afraid I'll end up missing some important email. They charge for email forwading, argh!
