Oh yes.  There was a time that Dennis and I were like a couple of kids 
in a candy shop when it concerned free e-mail accounts.  One of us 
would hear of a new one and off we'd go! :-)

That is how I came to start this list.  I got to thinking that maybe me 
and Dennis were not the only free e-mail nuts out there. <g>

Yes, Pegasus has that.  I seldom use it, however, unless there is some 
trouble on the server.  For example, if I detect on downloading that 
someone has sent me mail with a two ton attachment, I might stop the 
download and then go back with a selective download and see who it was 
and probably delete it on the server.
