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.

Gmail.com from Google, which offers almost unlimited storage and an efficient interface that allows you to check your mails effortlessly. The POP and IMAP software allow gmail to be accessed from any kind of email programme. The advertisements can be seen on one side of the emails and do not cause a hindrance when your are reading or sending an email.

Yahoo Mail also offers unlimited storage besides which it provides RSS news feeds and instant messaging. Yahoo also has another service known as the Yahoo Mail Classic, which offers a fairly good Spam protection feature while a rich HTML editor is also available for writing emails.

AIM Mail from AOL offers its free services with limitless storage, a brilliant interface and an excellent Spam protection. It offers standard POP and IMAP access and sadly does not include features such as smart folders, labels etc.

FastMail offers an astral web interface, IMAP access plus other useful features but unfortunately it provides only limited storage of only 2GB and not a very good Spam filter with the free to use emails accounts.

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. But proper organizing of mails is a bit lacking here.

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

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 a free email service that offers unlimited storage, POP access and a few background images besides which it is not such an efficient mail service.

Gawab is a fast and reliable free email service that offers its users 10GB of online storage along with POP and IMAP access. However it does not offer labels and a complete mail search facility.
