Thank you all once again for the continuing stream of helpful info. I
carefully researched each of the email service providers you suggested,
and the one that comes closest to fitting my needs, capabilities, and
budget is a paid account from Fastmail, which, perhaps not
coincidentally, was recommended by far more list members than any other
service. Along with so many other positives, I especially liked it that
they provide explicit instructions for setting up a MailMate app to work
with their server.
A few final (I hope) questions.
What would you recommend as the *easiest* way for someone with little
computer competence to transfer my current MM store of emails & folders
into Fastmail so that they will be available should I use the web to
access my Fastmail account via the web from another computer (i.e., not
my computer that has MM)?
Two or three of the online review services that review different email
providers had two general concerns about Fastmail (aside from privacy,
which I’m aware of): (a) service outages, & (b) occasional lag times
of 3,4, or even up to 7 hours before a response from their customer/tech
service. Have any of you Fastmail users experienced either of those?
Again: Thanks for your invaluable information and guidance.
Ken
