META: With the number of free email services out there all offering something slightly different, it’s up to you to select the right one that will be good for you.

Better features are included on a constant basis to provide users wtih the best services available as competition is pretty tough out there from all the free email service providers. You will be amazed at the features available for free from a good interface and mail filter facilities. These come at no added costs along with other useful features. You may even be tempted to have more than one free email account that you could assign to various categories of mails that you receive. 

Some of the top ten email service providers include –

Gmail from Google, which offers almost unlimited storage and an efficient interface that allows you to check your mails effortlessly. Gmail can be accessed from any kind of email programme as long as you have POP and IMAP sofware. Emails do have advertisements that can be seen on one side. These however, do not cause a hindrance when sending or reading your emails. 

Yahoo Mail also offers unlimited storage besides which it provides RSS news feeds and instant messaging. Yahoo Mail Classic is another service offered by Yahoo. Along with quite a good spam protection feature they also have an HTML editor that is great for writing emails.

AIM Mail from AOL offers its free services with limitless storage, a brilliant interface and an excellent Spam protection. Features such as smart folders and labels are sadly not offered but it does offer standard POP and IMAP access.

FastMail offers some good things and some of which are not so good, so let’s begin with the good things; an astral web interface, IMAP access and some other useful features. The down side of this service, it offers limited storage of 2GB and not a very good spam filter. 

GMX Mail is another consistent free email service that offers a rich interface along with POP and IMAP access, a good Spam filter, protection against viruses and a 5GB of storage. The organising of mails is however, needed here.

Inbox.com provides its clients 5GB of online storage and an efficient web mail access along with POP for your email programme. However, improvement for use of organising mails is really required and it does not support IMAP accessibility.

Windows Live Hotmail offers its free email services with 5GB of storage, a user-friendly interface and total security. However it does not give you POP and IMAP access and organising of mails fails to go past the folder level. The available Spam filter could also use some improvement.

Zenbe Personal offers various features like organising your mail with labels and search, uses several short cuts and has a good Spam filter but IMAP access is available only for the inbox.

Zapak Mail, is not the most efficient mail service around, despite offering unlimited storage, POP access, free email service and a few background images.

Gawab.Another free email service is offered by com. It also offers 10GB of online storage and access to POP and IMAP software. However it does not offer labels and a complete mail search facility.
