What Are The Best Free Email Accounts?

Some years ago I used to have a hotmail account, however due to problems with it I setup a Yahoo email account instead.

However over the past 6 months it has become saturated with spam so I have decided to setup a new account. I am thinking of simply setting up a new Yahoo account but I wanted to enquire about any superior free email accounts that may exist.

Any help would be appreciated.

    I just setup a google mail account and it looks rather good, out of interest when sending an email is there a fast way to insert all contact names at once?

    Assuming you have already imported/saved your contacts in Googlemail, you can open up the contacts folder and see them all in alphabetical order. Scroll down to the bottom and there is the option to select all.

    I have set up my Googlemail to use Outlook as my email client as I find it easier this way.

    Thanks again for all the help.

    I do however have one minor nitpick, is there a way to stop return emails being clumped together e.g. if I have several emails from the same person, is it possible to keep each one separate?
