hobo Posted June 23, 2002 Share Posted June 23, 2002 I have been using and loving the same small ISP for almost 10 years now. Unfortunately the CM RoW tournament has brought it to its knees. It cannot seem to tolerate several large e-mail messages coming in at the same time. My question to you fine folks is do you have any recommendations for a switch. My requirements are as follows: 1. No Busy signals 2. No e-mail problems 3. No annoying adds 4. Relatively affordable 5. Honors provacy Note - I do not have access to DSL or cable where I live. Thanks, Hobo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the only problem with your ISP is the email then why don't you use a hotmail or yahoo email account? I use yahoo for emailing CM PBEM files and it works fine. You might want to make two accounts. Have one opponent mail to one account and your other opponent can mail to the other. Each account can hold up to 5 or 6 megs. So long as your ISP connection is consistent, you shouldn't have a problem with downloading from yahoo or hotmail email.

Viceroy Posted June 23, 2002 Share Posted June 23, 2002 Hobo, if you just want a free email account then consider SoftHome.net It offers POP3, works fine with PBEM and best of all NO spam .... unlike yahoo and hotmail. http://www.softhome.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
