[QUOTE="PGB1, post: 1498719, member: 76746"] Hi! Please pardon me if this is answered elsewhere here. I've searched, but only managed to get myself confused. (Not unusual!) My ISP (AT&T) has instantly changed my monthly rate form $26 to $56. Yikes! That's on top of the increases they've been adding all along. It is time to switch providers. The local cable TV provider & some others are far less expensive. All of our E-Mail adresses are with AT&T, so I will have to send change-of-address notes to everyone we deal with. I'm thinking of using one of the stand-alone e-mail companies, like gmail, ymail, hot mail or another so I can keep the e-mail addresses as we change IPS companies or move away. I'm sorry I don't know the proper term for these providers. Here's the question: My wife & I both are very happy using Mac OS X's e-mail program. We would like to stick with that, but I've read horror stories about using a 3rd party e-mail with Mac's Mail. Ideally, we would be able to do as we do now- Simply open "Mail" and click "Get Mail" No fuss, mo muss. Which of these e-mail providers plays best with OS X's mail program? And, hopefully one that does not plaster your messages with advertisements- especially when sending to others. (I get a lot of mail from people using free programs, along with advertisements galore.) Am I asking for a miracle that does not exist, or is this possible? I sure appreciate your advice! Paul PS: I am using OS X 10.6.8 and the Mail program is version 4.6 [/QUOTE]
