Lost phone service for days and internet has not returned for a month now. It's area wide and I believe it was a cyber attack.
I now have a new internet provider that does not provide an e-mail address.
Recommendations & reviews from Freepers for an e-mail service would be appreciated.
Oh and I am now logged on:)
I believe you can get a Free Republic email address if you make a monthly contribution.
Rocketmail... Just kidding. The old net guys might get it.
Microsoft live.com isn’t bad.
Get your own domain and email. It’s inexpensive and you don’t have yahoo or google computers scanning every email, graphing your associations, and selling that info.
I knew I could flush that comment out of hiding:)
I know it’s highly scorned, but there’s really nothing much wrong with an AOL account.
Thanks, where would I go to do that?
Outlook.com is is Microsoft cloud based option, Provides Office functions like word, email, calendar and Excel.
hotmail.com
gmail.com
If you read German, gmx.net offers free email service.
Agree AOL is very good. Well, except for the HuffPo content.
Having a highly scorned site might give me some bragging rights.
I don’t often go to higly scorned sites but when I do I drink Dos equis.
I’ve used godaddy and networksolutions. In my experience godaddy is far easier to work with if you need to talk with them for some reason.
Email at a website is preferable to one at Comcast or other such because you don’t lose it when your service goes away or you go to another one. I use Yahoo which I regret because of its corporate communist leanings but it is reliable and doesn’t go away. Best is to subscribe to a site you pay for and that is foreign based. Lots more privacy and security that way.
GoDaddy is The Devil.
How so? I haven’t had any problems.
gmail.com (google) or outlook.com (microsoft). They are both very reliable and easy to sign up for. I have an account with both.
Not YAHOO! They have frequent outages and tech issues, and their customer service is the pits.
Have to laugh at the Service Issues forum at Yahoo when it goes down.
Q. What is wrong with Yahoo Mail?
A. Marissa Mayer is running the company.
Try ProtonMail. It’s a free encrypted email account.
Fastmail. And for a few dollars a month you can have unlimited aliases.
