Sorry - we can't find the email address you entered.
What you should do:
* The address above is what you typed in. If you entered the wrong address, try to login again.
* Don't put 'www' in front of your email address. Just type in your address eg [email protected]

Your email address may have expired if you haven't logged in for 3 months

* To re-activate your account, you need to re-register (you can use the same email address)
* Click here to re-register


Looks like Webmail trashed their user database.

The sooner people move(d) their mail out of there, the better. :)
 
Points all taken, Webmail and hind tit, be where else is there a local isp independent mail service ? Gmail is does not work for local only folk.
 
Mine is gone too. What a royal screw-up on their part. Good thing I keep all my emails on a real server (gmail).
 
mmm, I have a @ravemail.co.za account, i can still login, but when I do, it says OVER QUOTE(142.5% of 20.0M)...RIGHT... i have like 10 emails in that account, all text....
 
The problem with FREE email accounts is that the provider is not obliged to backup or
protect your data in any way. After all, if you're unhappy with the service you could
always ask them to pay your money back.... oh wait....

That's right.

The same can happen to hotmail, gmail, yahoo, etc. Get a paid email provider. It also
looks more professional and makes you trustworthy, less like a scammer from Nigeria/China.
 
So let me get this straight, if I use a free email service, I dont have any rights, I have to view all their spam that they send, and I can not expect a stable service. Oh, and I am considered non professional and untrustworthy, like a scammer from Nigeria/China.

Dont you just love the wonders of anonymous internet.
