I'd like to know more about this. Could you elaborate for me. Eventually
off-list? Just think of me as one of those very anoying users who likes to
understand things.

We do have ONE that comes with our connection. And my husband owns that one. I
don't really like to share a mailbox with someone if I don't have to, even if
it is my husband. Also I feel that his choice for the pop account name really
leaves me out a bit. And last but not least after a while sorting out mail
becomes annoying to say the least. :o)

As for web based e-mail accounts I do have one. But it simply cannot handle the
amount of e-mail I recieve in a satisfactory manner or to put it differently it
is agonizingly slow. I hate slow. Especially for e-mail. So that's why I'd like
a pop3 account. I think I can recieve that into my mailbox and browse through
it without being on-line or without constant interaction with any other machine
than my own once I've recieved it. Or am I wrong here?
