I had to drop my ISP - went downhill.

Now I have an ISP thru my Telephone Company at 6 Mbps and it works fine.

BUT - their E-Mail is pretty much garbage.    Frontier.com

My old ISP had an E-Mail service that worked well with my SeaMonkey.
The new "Frontier" service doesn't work well with SM.  Clunky. Supposed to get
worse in 2018, Frontier says !

I have several gmail accounts, but gmail does not handle Pictures (photo files) very well.  There is no "In Line Photos" like SeaMonkey has - just "attachments".

Can anyone recommend a good E-Mail service that allows photos to be embedded in
the message like SM did ?  INSERT |  IMAGE   etc.....

I Googled E-Mail
www.technorms.com/14035/10-free-email-service-providers
and got a list.

Are any of those good for what I need ?  If not, can someone recommend others ?

OMG !

How can ANYONE outside of your group of people know what the Heck you
are talking about !?

You folks argue about what I am supposed to do !
Who do I follow ?
What I see is Thunderbird info - not SeaMonkey Info !

You might be right here, DoctorBill, so confusion is possible from people using different programs .... but, just remember, they are all trying to do their best for you. ;-)

I get instructions that tell me half or less what to do.....I am not knowledgeable in all this technical jargon you fellow toss around.

Much like someone with a PhD in BioChemestry might throw some jargon around ... in some places. ;-)

Is SeaMonkey the same as Thunderbird or FireFox ?
Much of this "Information" is about Thunderbird !
Paul asked - do I use "...webmail or POP/IMAP gmail" ?    No Idea what he means ?

DoctorBill, as I understand it, webmail is when you use a BROWSER to go to an e-mail site, gmail.com/yahoomail.com/whatever, to manage your e-mail in and out. The mail is stored on their harddrives not yours.

If you have a IMAP mail account, that means you use a e-mail application such as Thunderbird or SeaMonkey Mail & News screen to manipulate your e-mails on your ISP's server.

If you have a POP3 e-mail account, when you connect to your ISP to get your e-mail, the e-mails are downloaded onto your hard drive where they live or die!!

I am sorry to be so ignorant, but if Mozilla wants people to use their product, it
must be explained as if everyone is a child and/or a moron.....

Mozilla doesn't produce SeaMonkey, Mozilla used to produce Thunderbird but may or mayn't now. SeaMonkey is produced by the SeaMonkey Consortium or some such, a group of volunteers (some of whom may work, in a paid capacity, for Mozilla), but they do/did get support from Mozilla.

I have a PhD in Biochemistry from UC Davis and I still cannot follow this stuff !

Yeap!! I can relate to that!! I taught Electronics and Computer programming (8085/Z80/6809) back in the mid-nineties!! Know bugger all about it now-a-days!!
