Free POP email?

[sudraka]

Does anyone know of any free pop email service. www.mighty.co.za used to offer, but now they dont take any new applications.

Free POP email??? not webmail

POP corn ? hehehe

www.webmail.co.za has POP3 support.
Register your account with webmail.co.za, in outlook (or preferred email program) use the following settings:

pop3 server: mail.webmail.co.za

Enjoy.

Alternatively, get a Google Mail account.

I would recommend GMail... works like a charm...

yup gmail can be used for pop too, just remember to enable it in the settings.

 

[jarr]

yup, pop access is why my gmail account is now my main one

 

[nigel07]

GMail also good for an online storage solution.

Yep GMail is cool and it's by invite only

Just a bit of useless info about gmail - by signing up an account with them you waver your privacy rights, the fine print basically says that gmail can read your mail if they want to.

Of course, any POP service provider can read all your mail anyway. If it's important, encrypt it! If Gmail feels like trawling through my 780MB of mail, they can feel free to.

I think this applies with ALL google services.

I agree...GMAIL GMAIL GMAIL...I can send you a invitation if you'd like?

 

[kilps]

I've also got a couple of invites...

But I would actually recomend gmail for the interface more than anything else, it is way more inovative than outlook

Webmail's servers are local, Gmail's aren't.
With all the Telkom international crap, it is a good idea to have it local. The only offer 20mb of mailbox space though, so if you're needing more - gmail is the answer.

Cheers, Nick

Thats true, but with Webmail you get spamed a lot! I don't receive spam in my Gmail account.

I don't pop my emails as well. The web interface is better that outlook. There are just no equal to Gmail...

 

[nigel07]

You will be suprised at how much spam there is in GMAIL.
Check you spam folder, i you will get a gauranteed 3-5 spam messages a day.
Remember, by using GMAIL, you signing your privacy away to google.

Enjoy.
