With a 2GB account I would have 8 times the space and room for well over 200,000 emails.

I really don't want that much emails hanging around.




i think you they let you delete them if you ask nicely.

5. And should you trust a company which has practised inserting its own links into existing web pages against webmasters' wishes, in order to divert surfers directly to related commercially-available products?

thats prety much the same with all isp's.

but whos going to take the time to go thru hundreds and thosands of email a/c. most of the stuff in there is spam, plus there always being watched by inhouse techs. so if they do go thru they'll prob hit a virus,
alarms will go of in the isps company, tech gets fired.
