all free internet email is crap the only reason i use yahoo is coz the fact that i get my own webspace. u know u could try mail.com (http://www.mail.com) but i reckon that it would be no better than the others.

http://www.email.com works fairly well.  I\'ve been signed up for about a week now testing it out and there hasn\'t been any issues at all and my inbox is always empty (part of the test is not giving out the email to anyone until you can be sure it\'s ad-free).  The only gripe I have is it\'s weak interface.  Hotmail\'s is much better than what it was.

If you happen to have an American Express card of any kind, you can use their "Amexmail" service, which is provided by usa.net.  It includes features you\'d normally have to pay for at other webmail providers, but it\'s FREE if you have any american express card.  http://www.amexmail.com

I\'ve been using mailcity for little over 8 years now, it\'s the only one I use so can\'t go wrong with it.

Yahoo mail has worked great for me.  I hate to tell you, but any junk mail you get is probably your fault.  I\'ve been using yahoo for well over a year, and I get absolutely no junk mail.  

What I did is I set up 2 e-mail accounts on yahoo.  I use one to sign up for things, and the other for personal use.  The one I use to sign up for things is now overflowing with junk mail, but the other gets none.  I\'d recommend just doing that.
