Re: Good Free Email
I don't know about good as I have always used my ISP email, but here is a link to a review and listing of the free email services available.
Freemail

Re: Good Free Email
iname.com is good.
They've got a ton of popups, but I've yet to recieve a spam.
(Of course, I sign up for everything via a spamtrap account on hotmail, so that helps too)

Re: Good Free Email
Spam Gormet is also good for taking care of spam. It is strictly a forwarding service for your existing email address, but it is a really cool idea. Sends all spam to dev nul.

Re: Good Free Email
I use Email.com, and I don't have many complaints. They do have a lot of pop-ups, tho. |

Re: Good Free Email
PopUp Stopper Pro will take care of those annoying popups quite effectively. Hold the control key when you want a popup (like preveiw on this forum).

Re: Good Free Email
Where could one acquire this popup stopper?
Look what those M$ (explitive deleted) have done now to free hotmail accouts:

You'd think that a multi-billion (trillion?) dollar corporation could have enough servers to avoid problems such as these. Grr... |

Re: Good Free Email
My prefered proxy server (popup/ad stopper) is The Proxomitron. It dynamically parses the text that comes to your system from the Web, all HTML, Java, JS, etc., and does a find and replace on it to kill popups, ad banners, and otherwise customize the Web to how YOU want to see it.
