Boy! Think i tried them all so far! At least the most popular.

1) Yahoo.com (1997-present). Have kept it but gradually leaving it for a Yahoo.ca address which offers POP access via Outlook etc. Also for the fact that i wasn't aware of spam issues at the time. Now two months with this new address without spam. True, haven't used it for email yet but sure is a good sign so far. I'm inclined to go back to Yahoo.ca as it has nice Calendar, Notes, .html composition and going up to 1G pretty soon!

2) Hotmail (1997-present) for the Messenger feature.

3) Fastmail.fm (1998-present) for speed and as form of protest at the time for Yahoo taking away POP access feature and reducing storage. Have three accounts for business and personal use.

4) Sympatico (1997-present) ISP for newsletters. No spam.

5) Bluebottle (2004-present) as a pastime.

6) Gmail (2005) as another hobby. Cool but think i prefer Yahoo! overall.
