Gmail.
I have really good luck with Gmail from Google. No spam to note, and very easy to interact with.

I used Yahoo for a number of years but for some reason the last couple of years they managed to "lose" two accounts for me. I have switched to gmail (a google email) and love it. My husband still uses Yahoo and has not had a problem. Others will chime in on what works for them.
Have fun and enjoy surfing the web in that Bighorn. C.J.

We have two different accounts...
We use Hotmail... http://www.hotmail.com
Also Yahoo ... https://login.yahoo.com/
Note: Yahoo... click on the "Sign UP" button at the bottom.
Both of these are FREE... you will be able to get your email even if your not using your own computer... like if your at a Library... They work good.

We've been using yahoo for a little over 3 years. No problems. I also have a windows live address. I've heard good things about g-mail but I don't feel like changing everything from yahoo.

Wow.. I am in the minority..
I have a hotmail account (@live.com is the same). Had it for a long time, but I mainly use this account for IM with friends and to give out when I don't want to use my main email address.
I have the domain name txbobcat.com. Through my domain I have an account for business, DW and my personal email. This is through Go Daddy. This also gives me a web site if I want to use it.
The reason I use a domain account is that I have used MS Outlook for many years and am so use to downloading my email to my computer. I don't have to worry about loosing my email or contacts. Unless you purchase an account Yahaoo or Hotmail does not allow pop accounts.
The only email I have not tried was Gmail and that was that they were asking for a lot of information that I did not want to give them to open an account.. They may have changed by now, I am not sure..
That's what I do...

You probably have an email account if you have a broadband card...i.e. verizon.net or att.net. I have used hotmail, yahoo, and gmail, but now use juno.com that I have had for years. It does cost 9.95 a month but I hate to get rid of it because I have had it so long.

Gmail for us
Google Gmail here. With Google providing every account 7397 MB capacity there is enough room to do a lot of emailing. We also have our Gmail account set to receive and send from Microsoft Outlook so everything is on the Laptop; there are no concerns about Google losing our emails. When away from our personal Laptop we can still access the Gmail account from any computer.
Another great feature Google provides is the Google Calendar. It is very easy to use, has reminder options for those that are forgetful (like me) and can be shared with friends or family that have a Google account.
All this plus much more for free.
