my e-mail provider server thingy decided to -erm- stop providing this service...(www.icscotland.co.uk) so, i need a new one, preferrably kinda obscure which doesn't get much spam. i also don't use outlook express so...............anyone got any ideas of a new one i can use?

hotmail get's too much spam...and -erm- preferrably one without any bad language (my parents'll have to e-mail me...i think there's also www.****you.co.uk, obscure, but the language...🙁)

You have a Yahoo account? They have a built in spam blocker I use and hardly ever get any spam.

you can have your settings so you only receive mail from people in your address book on hotmail

I use hotmail and I never get any spam,even without adjusting any settings or blocking anybody's mail.

seems good - and I've got no spam in the first two weeks i've been using it. It is free to set up a receive account but you have to pay $14.95 (one off charge) to be able to send. Of course you may still be able to send mail some other way and just have a prob with receiving...?

In any case - its worth checking out. I do enjoy these independent internet ventures where the people running them obviously listen to their users :-)
