You can request an increased amount, you just have to tell them why, I have 100.

Something else I thought about... everyone.net might be testing the waters to see if ending the free service will actually increase the paid signups... I did not think about that until I logged into my everyone.net account today. lol...

I definitely see a rise in the number of subscribers...

If the same happens across the board, we might never see a "free" service from everyone.net again... they would have no reason.

I can speak for Computermail.net on this issue.

Computermail.net still offers free email. We do not have pop-ups or redirects or auto-install .exe ads.

As I have said before, Computermail.net is not a typical Everyone.net partner. We pay for every mailbox, we maintain control over them. As has also been mentioned before, our partnership with Everyone.net is atypical, and we take great pride in our ability to keep our service child-safe, and profitable at the same time. By being a family owned and operated service, we keep our costs down. 3 generations of the family are involved with Computermail.net and bring experience plus enthusiasm to the task.

We will not sell-out, no matter what the economic climate. Computermail.net has enough cash reserves to keep the service going for many years, even in the event of complete loss of income. We are not in danger of going away, or being forced to make unpopular decisions effecting our subscribers in order to shore up a temporary income deficit.

Computermail is a great service & would be even better if there was an ad-free version available for a nominal fee to remove all the irritating ads/noises created by the web interface.

Fastmail is offering this option now for around $5 a year,

Thank you for your patience and understanding throughout this time. We appreciate your partnership with Everyone.net and endeavor to provide you with excellent service.

Derogatory? Please look up that term....

Let me see... someone posts about their money being ever flowing and you don't find that funny?

Sorry... but if you want to take this public, go right ahead, big shot.

You are a joke...

Looks like a closure for this thread. Free signup is back. Had checked on my service and it is there.

Moderator: In case anyone wondered if we moderators have any spine around here, we do. Don't break the rules. We may not have banned anyone with as many posts, even positive posts, as Theog, but recently Theog pretty much pushed the "Ban me" button so many times it broke. This small infraction is just the last poke. I'm pleased to clear the air a bit.

Thanks for taking care of that, Shelded. Saved me having to reach for the "Ban" button myself.

Quick reminder, from the Rules of the Forum...
