Alternative Email Recommendations
« on: December 02, 2013, 09:31:43 pm »
Got any? For obvious reasons I don't want to use Google or Yahoo. I tried out mail.com because I thought it was cool that you can pick your own extension, but the site itself fucking sucks camel dicks. Pretty much every time I try and log in it fails because of "unknown technical issues" the first time, and usually works the second time. This last time it failed five times in a row, so as of 48 seconds ago I decided that wasn't the mail service for me..... or anyone.

Keep in mind, I'm not necessarily looking for anonymous emails. Just an email provider that doesn't allow NSA snooping or anything similar.

Well sure, but that's a temporary email. I'm actually looking for an email that I would use with my actual identity(for jobs and whatnot). But I refuse to use yahoo or Google.

http://darkmail.info/

Not sure what the current status is but it seems quite a cool project, its aiming to be one of the most private/secure mailsystems around.
Its a follow up after lavabit and silentmail etc.
That is about the opposite of goo and yablow

Hmm that looks interesting. I'll definitely be looking more into this thanks for the link. I wonder if an employer would find it questionable that someone would use that type of email.

Have a cookie for your troubles. I'll give you one too Kulver because I don't want you to feel left out.

Yeah I have been looking for a new email service too, I use Hotmail and it blows. I didn't want to switch to gmail because I don't trust Google, and haven't for a long time. And then Yahoo had some big security issues recently, so that crossed them off of my list.

And you trust Microsoft more? I'd suggest using an e-mail service like the ones above for your everyday crap mail service. I really don't trust any "cloud" mail provider and expect anything to be public in my mail box :(

Just purchase a cheap offshore VPS and set up webmail on your domain.

Can you read? I said I am trying to leave Hotmail. I have had this hotmail account since I was like, a little kid, so most of my shit goes to it, but I am trying to switch.

This. It's not that hard to set up a smtps + imaps server. Webmail is optional for me.

Good idea vezzy + ca0s. Of course I'm a broke mother fucker. Even though I'm sure it's not that much money. Will look into this plus the darkmail thing. When does that become operational anyway.
