Free Mail Auto-Forwarding / Web Based Free Email Account

First of all let me differentiate between mail forwarding and a web based e-mail account. Mail forwarding basically means that you get a virtual e-mail address. All mail sent to this address gets forwarded to your current e-mail address. Whereas an e-mail account is for people who don't already have one. This gives them their web based e-mail address.

HotMail Get Your *Web-Based* Free Email at Hot Mail.

Yahoo Mail Web-Based Free Email at Yahoo Mail. I prefer this one over hotmail - it seems to have a better layout but then that is just personal preference.

NetAddress NetAddress allows you to send or retrieve your e-mail through their world-wide-web mail reader, allowing easy access from any web-connected computer. If you don't want to read your mail through the web you can use your favorite mail client to download your stored mail from NetAddress or you can have it forwarded to any e-mail address.

StarMail They provide you with a virtual Email Address, with a large choice of domain names that include certain famous names, places & phrases. For example you can have the e-mail address name@over-the-rainbow.com. This is one of the many options that they offer.

NetForward.com NetForward.com will provide you with a virtual email address. All mail sent to this virtual address will then be forwarded to your current address. They do not offer as many domain names as StarMail, though.

Bigfoot Get your FREE, LIFETIME e-mail address that will never change at bigfoot. They give you a virtual e-mail address like whatever@bigfoot.com.

Free web page forwarding

NetForward.com NetForward.com also offers Web Page Forwarding which works the same way as mail forwarding. You get a peranent web page address like http://www.netforward.com/YourNewAddress/?YourName. Whenever a "surfer" accesses this address they will automatically be forwarded to your home page.

home.ml.org This is also a free service and you get a domain name like http://whatever.home.ml.org/ . The catch is that this address may not work with all browsers.
