I prefer to use my own e-mail service. It is relatively inexpensive to register a domain and pay for web or e-mail only hosting. The following advantages are why I chose this method. 1. Almost all e-mail hosting services provide pop / imap hosting 2. Many services provide several web-mail interfaces to choose from 3. If you have pop access you can use the accessible e-mail client of your choice a. Past messages are always available on your system, regardless of Internet access b. You can compose e-mails without Internet access and have the client send them when you are ready 4. Your address stays the same regardless of changing ISPs or the need to change web-based mail providers because of accessibility issues. 5. If you manage your own mail server you can control exactly what technologies are used for mail exchange and spam filtering HTH, Everett Follow me on Twitter http://twitter.com/ezufelt View my LinkedIn Profile http://www.linkedin.com/in/ezufelt Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Visit the Blind Computing home page at: http://www.blind-computing.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [email protected] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [email protected] Use the following address in order to contact the management team [email protected] If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [email protected] Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Visit the Blind Computing home page at: http://www.blind-computing.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [email protected] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [email protected] Use the following address in order to contact the management team [email protected] If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [email protected]
