Trusted email free account - please advise


Hi,

I nned an email free account mainly for mailing lists. My
deafult public email is on yahoo.com and it seems for me my emails are treated as spam. I don't have any particular requirements.

I don't trust gmail. Simply I don't like when someone is lying me.

Or you could

Try www.fastmail.fm if you like.
The free account is good, but the paid accounts are better. And it really is very FAST.

I just found out a few days ago that you get free webmail with an account at http://my.opera.com. So if your a fan of the Opera browser, that might work.

I use hushmail which has a limited free option (it has nice encryption tools)

In 2007, however, there was a case where apparently they made some info accessible to the government.

Hi,

Till now I visited Tormail, Lavabit and Fastmail - and at this moment Lavabit is my preference - their free accounts are full featured.
