| Introduction | | The free email services listed here allow you to have a permanent and free e-mail addres, which remains the same, even if you change to another local Internet provider (the service which you use to connect to the Internet). These free email services can forward email (received on your free e-mail account) to your local email address, directly retrieve email from your free email address, and/or view the emails (received by your free email account) online in your Webbrowser.
With 'Web based' free mail services you don't need a local e-mail address, nor an email program.
Web based email services provide you with a userfriendly but slower Web-based interface,
so you only need a Web browser on any computer to receive and send mail.
Email is not stored on the local computer, making this a great system for accessig your email from
any where on any computer. We recommend using a non-local e-mail address - Web-based or otherwise - because this way you will always keep the same address for your business relations and friends no matter how many times you change your local Internet provider, or move to another area or country. However, there are some things to keep in mind, while signing up with these services. | What's the Catch? | |
There are many ways email providers could be profiting from your free e-mail account (which you should be aware of), such as: It is recommended only to use a service which has a very clear and outspoken privacy policy regarding your email address and other personal information. | Nothing lasts forever.. | What happens if the service goes out of business or starts to charge money for its services? There is nothing you will be able to do about this.
Many previously free email services (promising a 'lifetime free email address') have given up or simply started charging fees. | | Free Web based email services | Receive, read and send email using your Web browser. You don't need to have a local email account or email program.
