Ive had no problems with geek.com, plus you get an email @geek.com, whoohoo anyway, their web mail client allows you to check up to 5
pop
accounts too, which is cool (and handy when in weird places and
unable
to simply telnet). There was rumblings about having to pay to keep your account months ago, but my rarely-accessed 3 year old
account's
still there, and working.
Just been there and tried to sign in. I got the following message:
Due to a business decision, Geek.com is no longer offering Geek.com e-mail addresses. We apologise if this causes any distress.

oh. well, that explains why mine's still working i guess.
MyRealBox.com is free, it offers IMAP and POP3, as well as webmail, and outgoing (using either Authorise SMTP or check-before-send). It's Novell's test server for their NetMail product. You can check another 3 POP accounts, and you can also use NetMail's 'User Proxy' through webmail, which means you can have multiple myrealbox.com accounts and you only have to login once to view all the account's mail.
Hope this helps :o)

Too late agian!!! Went there adn got this message:
'The MyRealBox system will continue to no longer accept new accounts at
this
time.'
Oh well.
