Hotmail sucks, Mail.com sucks, Yahoo mail sucks, aol sucks too! I would much rather be able to use my own pc as my own personal e-mail server. Having everything sent right to my pc. Screw all those crappy e-mail services.

Ive never had that come up before! :confused:
Also I think that Hotmail is not bad because it's easily accessable but I don't use it for important emails of course cos its too prone to junk.

I had the mail filter set on high and was still getting bout 50 e mails sent to me daily. I just said screw it and unistalled the whole thing all together. I only kept my hotmail account for Msn Messenger but know that I got rid of that does anyone know of a better service for instant messaging?

Been getting that message all morning...we could be no the same server.:hang:
Yahoo all they way.. the only problem is that recently they relaxed their policies so that they could gain more advertising funds. The prevelence of spam mail is now increased because they turned everyone's inbox protector off by default even though it was off before.

Do not turn on the junkmail filter. That is how they track you.
Hotmail keeps lists of whoever turns their junkmail filter on, then they distribute these to advertising companies/individuals.
If you don't turn your filter on, they don't know your email address exists (the advertising companies) so you get no junkmail at all. Works for me.

Hotmail isn't as bad as you guys say it is. Sure it displays ads, and has only 2mb of storage space, but that's just the way it is. In a society where 'there is no free lunch' I think this is pretty good for a free lunch, eh?

I like my hotmail. It filters out my brothers joke nicely.
