well it looks like some e-mail services have decided since gmail google e-mail has whent to 1 gig of space.

so here it is. i am ganna tell people the best set of places to get e-mail. no need to thank me. but here ya go

[aventuremail](http://aventuremail.com) The top of the e-mail services. the one and only to offer 2 gig of e-mail space. yet that is 2000mb

[GMail](http://gmail.com) one of the most talked about e-mail services. very funny how this was in the news paper and invites are being sold on [ebay.com](http://ebay.com) keyword gmail with prices of 50 dollers since i last cheacked.  
if you really want gmail then find my post i had posted here on kirupa about giveing those away

[Yahoo](http://yahoo.com) Yahoo has moved up to 100mb of space. before they moved up you could have gotton the 100mb of space on yahoo for around 60 dollers.

[CrispyMail.com](http://CrispyMail.com) 100mb. and has a better name then yahoo mail

[www.indyamail.com](http://www.indyamail.com) 12+ domains, 75MB inbox… i havent use there server but i had read about it. just that they give what they give.

[Msn Hotmail](http://hotmail.com) for some reason i cant get to there web site. but i know for a fact that there stell at 2mb and offering the most smallest mailbox and owned by the richest man in the world and who has the biggest net sum in the world. who probly gets like 10,000 dollers intrest at the bank. who am i kidding he owns his personal bank i bet. bill gates well never give extra space

whats this even i own a e-mail service that offers more then hotmail

[http://webmail.deadbodies.us](http://webmail.deadbodies.us) - so what if i offer 6mb of e-mail space i got the most insane internet domain. come on give me a cookie or something

well thats my wrap up on e-mail. if you want gmail only to make yer friends go all geeky over ya then just got to find that really nice post i made. hmm lets give you a hint

[http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=59727&page=1&pp=15](http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=59727&page=1&pp=15)

I’m sorry, but this sounds very much like a sales pitch…

it may be a very good deal.

it may not.

I am always wary of anything which sounds too good to be true. Not that it isn’t what it says it is… But it may not stay that way forever.

Call me old and cynical… and you’d be right…

thanks ThunderHorse :thumb:

I thought my mail service ([postmaster](http://www.postmaster.co.uk/)) was pretty good until I looked at some of the ones you’ve posted, now it looks bad…real bad.

Like the look of [CrispyMail.com](http://CrispyMail.com)🍺

realize also that microsoft is a publicly traded company and gates owns only 10.75% of it. i’m not saying microsoft couldn’t afford to give more space, but they didn’t become microsoft by handing out freebies.

i’ve always used yahoo when i need free e-mail.

I think I agree with Reverend Flash. Yahoo’s recent jump to 100MB for free is pretty cool. Then again, with any domain you purchase or tack yourself on to, plus wherever you get your ISP, or if you have a cellphone, or you have any sort of digital cable service in your home and or office, or you have a job with any place that has a website, you’ll just end up like me with like 20 email accounts to check, but with nothing extra to pay…topay…

Toupee…hmmm… :hr:

Oh yeah, I forget to add it:  
I too am old and cynical… :elderly: :puzzle:

Nothing beats having your own mail server. And setting up Linux, Qmail, Vpopmail, Courier and SquirrelMail is fun - in a geeky sort of way 🙂

No size limits other than harddisk size and you can get the email address you want - as long as you own the domain it’s under…

I have been using gmail for less than a day, but I really like it. It is like typing messages on the forum. The reply feature is just as good as quick reply 🙂

I love gmail! It’s so awesome, especially these labels. I’ve been sending myself random emails about nothing and just labelling them in different ways, it’s sorta fun. 🙂

But my stupid friends won’t email me 'cause they’re afraid for their privacy, which honestly doesn’t make much sense to me, but to each their own I guess. Still… Ⓜ
