What do you consider the best email provider?

[fbj]

Gmail seems to be A$$ and Yahoo is not that much better. I have actually had lots of success with this email provider below for the past 7 years called INBOX.COM

If you never of it click the link below.

Inbox.com - Login

I am at mail.com.

Don't know what your issue is with gmail, I have multiple accounts, no problems here.

Yahoo is a pain in the ass.

Personally I think all web based email system suck, speaking from an interface perspective.

Pretty much any email provider is going to provide - well - email.

It's the interface that is often the real problem. I use Thunderbird by Mozilla and love it. I don't have to log out and log in to different accounts depending on what I want to look at. I currently have 6 accounts from 3 different email providers (work, cable, gmail) that I can monitor all at once and see new emails for each account and reply/forward with the appropriate outgoing SMTP information.

PC based email programs are great for some, not so great for others. Someone like me who pretty much does a clean OS reinstall once a year means backing up all those emails then reimporting them, using an online email server means that's one less thing I have to worry about. Besides if your hard drive takes a major dump and craps out on ya you better have all those emails backed up, hard drive failures are one of the most common problems with computers.

Web-based email can be accessed remotely. Your Hard drive based mail cannot. Plus, limiting your email to one acct creates a ginormous monster of data to sift through

My emails are stored locally and by the service provider, so there are two copies.

I backup my local copies periodically as part of a system backup, but even if my hard drive crashes the email are still there through the service provider.

My email isn't "hard drive based".

My client runs on my laptop where I can access all accounts through the client software. I still have full access to all my emails through a web interface if I'm on a different computer, on a tablet, or using my smartphone.

The emails are not stored in one "ginormouse" account. Copies of the emails are stored locally in container files for each separate account (not one), and those emails are still on the server for the web service.

I have recently tested Outlook 2013 for my mail.com account and it works fine, thought Thunderbird was able to identify the in and out servers and Outlook doesn´t.

I'm with you, Ringel05. I like my Gmail very much. I have it on my desktop PC and my 3 Chromebooks.

Strange. I have no problem with it.

Outlook works just fine and it pulls in email from 5 separate accounts I have all on one application launch.

As I back up My system on a very regular basis, recovering emails is not even an issue. People should back up far more often than the weekly visit to their favorite porn site.

I had to add the servers manually and then it worked.

Ah...well, I managed to connect them all through the setup wizard....either way, I like Outlook. Its interface is superb, easy to navigate, and gives Me a clean way to create and hide folders. Not to mention, Outlook is also a form of project management and collaboration software. Most people don't realize it, but Outlook is actually the most used Microsoft Application software.

Doesn't allow me to create folders

They're called "Labels" not "Folders", I have all mine organized.

Here's one way to create Labels:

I also liked the small too that was shipped with Vista Ultimate.

Small?

You mean Outlook express? If so, yeah. I liked that application alot. Didn't have any real bloat and ran as well as full Outlook. Which was good because at that time, I couldn't afford MS Office to get the full Outlook.

It is now, yes, and its not the same as it was when it was Outlook Express. The Windows Mail app on windows 8 kind of sucks. I don't care for it at all. It wasn't bad on Windows 7...
