E-mail Help

I've been using Yahoo! Mail for quite some time now, because it allows me to check my e-mail using Microsoft Outlook 2002, but after April 24, Yahoo! is no longer offering this service for free. So, I was wondering if there are any other e-mail providers that offer this service for free. Thanks!

No, the POP3 forwarding service which allows me to check my e-mail using Outlook (not Outlook Express).

From the Yahoo sign up page:
Yahoo! Mail is loaded with great features including:
4MB FREE Storage:
Lots of space at no charge, with the option for power users to expand their mailbox up to 100MB.
SPAMGUARD™:
This proprietary system is intended to radically reduce the amount of spam you receive in your inbox. Spamguard™ is designed to direct most spam to your Bulk Mail folder, to help you better manage your mail.
POP Access to External Mail:
You can configure Yahoo! Mail to retrieve messages from most External Mail accounts to which you have POP access. An account with POP access is one that you are able to access through an external email client such as Outlook, Eudora, or Netscape Mail.
Virus Scan:
This feature offers Yahoo! Mail users a fast, free and effective anti-virus tool to protect them from known viruses sent and received via e-mail file attachments. Virus scan is seamlessly integrated into Yahoo! Mail, and automatically scans all outgoing e-mail file attachments such as documents, spreadsheets, zip files, presentations and executable files. People can also choose to scan incoming e-mail file attachments.
File Viewer:
The easy-to-use file viewer feature enables Yahoo! Mail users to take a "sneak peak'' at attachments they have received without having to actually download the file. This offers additional convenience for those who may want to quickly look at an attachment without the added step and time of downloading it.
Personal Address:
The new Personal Address feature allows Yahoo! Mail users to quickly and easily register for their own personalized e-mail address and domain. Users can send, receive and manage e-mail from their personalized domain, using the same powerful tools and features that Yahoo! Mail currently offers.
I think I have 6mb myself but I signed up with them many years ago. Must be a new policy?

I use hotmail, and I have no trouble with it. I also believe that you can check your mail with MSN Outlook....

Must be a new policy, as I've had my account since 1998, and I always remember it being six. If it's switched to four, I'm going to have to do some deleting.

Yes. I already said you can check it with outlook. It's already set up in Office XP as a matter of fact... just put in your hotmail username and pwd and you're ready to go!

Hotmail sucks, plain and simple. It's spam central. So, does anyone know another service that will let me check my e-mail using Outlook?

Umm... that's free? Not me.... I use Lycos and FanForce.Net. Both internal, but they're not bad.

I agree, Hotmail has spam...but so does yahoo.
However, the newest version of outlook lets you check ANY http mail provider, as long as you know the correct URL to put in.
