Can You Suggest An Email Provider Which Works Well With The Tacos Reflector?

[Richard]

Greetings All,

Andre, Thanks for your good advice about gmail.

Yesterday evening I opened my gmail account and was surprised how different it is from Yahoo.  Gmail seems much more busy than Yahoo.

As I only want the email function,  I wonder, if some of the other (non-email) stuff can be turned off.

Just now I subscribed to the Tacos reflector.  Hopefully, I will soon be receiving posts from Tacos in my gmail account.

This Sunday, Aug 3rd, is the Berryville Hamfest. 

Looking forward to seeing you (Andre & the other AMRAD people) there.

Best Wishes

 For me, gmail works very
 well.
 
 The one thing you need to remember
 is that, if you post something on Tacos with Gmail, the
 posting emanating back from Tacos will NOT show up on your
 gmail incoming mail, because Gmail recognizes the message
 from Tacos being the same as the one you sent.
 There is no work around for
 that.
 One great advantage of Gmail is
 that there is practically no spam. (Gmail magically
 gets rid of emails purporting to improve some of your body
 parts, etc.)
 
 Finally, all the mail you do not
 discard will be stored in "the cloud" and you can
 retrieve any mail message by typing the name of the subject
 of the e-mail in the upper window, and the message will be
 instantly retrieved.
 
 One drawback is that if you were
 one day working somewhere and there was no Internet
 available, then you  could not retrieve that message, or
 that file.
 
 Another drawback, I am told, is
 that since Gmail keeps everything, if you were to have used
 Gmail to correspond with someone, and you and that person
 were later involved in a lawsuit, your opponent could easily
 subject your Gmail account to discovery.

 Greetings All,
 
 
 
 For some time I have been having problems with Yahoo.
 
 
 
 The problem is not only between Yahoo and the Tacos
 reflector, but even between Yahoo and Yahoo Groups.
 
 
 
 And there are other Yahoo issues as well.
 
 
 
 It is my understanding that Yahoo is either impossible to
 contact or next to impossible to contact---to get a real
 person.
 
 
 
 Evidently from what I have read, Yahoo has made various
 changes which have resulted in problems for the end user.
 
 
 
 So I am thinking of getting another email account with some
 other email service provider.
 
 
 
 Can any of you suggest a free email service provider which
 works well with the Tacos reflector?
 
 
 
 I would like to establish such an email account and use it
 to receive email from the Tacos reflector.
 
 
 
 
 
 Best Wishes
