If this is a free Yahoo! Mail account, you only get 1 GByte of

AOL gives 2GB.
GMail is what - 2.7GB now?
Hotmail is sad.

Look up the definition of "most".

Look up:

eMail.com.
Excite Mail.
FastMail.
GMX Mail.
Juno Mail.
ICQMail.
Lycos Mail.
MyRealBox.
Oprea Mail.
SacBee Mail.
UYMail.

2 to 11. None of those six offer more that 250MBytes. "Most" free
web mail services don't even approach the Yahoo! Mail 1 GByte
capacity.

I would include AIM Mail with AOL Mail and GMail, but I don't know
if AIM Mail should be considered independent of AOL Mail; it also
offers a 2 GByte capacity.

I was going for the 'real' email services.

Those you listed are not used as often by those who would actuall be someone
I would listen to when recommending email services - free or otherwise - so
*I* don't even consider them anymore. I definitely wouldn't recommend any
of them to anyone.

To be quite honest - GMAIL and YAHOO are about the only two free ones I
would even consider offering as a solution for anyone.
We can list the little guys all day, after all you left out ones like
petcentral.com, softhome.net and hushmail.com... And that is just thre of
the many. heh

I wasn't trying to start an argument - just adding more to the list. I
believe people should be given more than one choice - and since you only
listed 'Yahoo'...
