I'm looking for an "unfiltered email" service. Reason: some of my email
correspondents use domains that are blocked by spam filters. So if I want to
continue communicating with them (I do!), I must find some way for them to
send me emails.

I've googled ("unfiltered email" searchstring) and most of them charge
money. The few who don't aren't very attractive or have limited features.
For example one of them limits individual emails to 25kb each. Anybody know
of a good unfiltered email service? Preferably free, of course, and
preferably POP3. I might pay a little (up to $10/year), but not the $80/year
which some of them are asking...

Heh...I wish my ISP (charter.net) WOULD filter my e-mail. :)

heh. How good is your German. (Mine is quite bad, but I joined while they
still had a multi langual site)

But http://www.gmx.net has a nice 10 MB Pop3 box (also webmail) you can turn
on/of spamfilters yourself. and do some other tricks

It is free, but you have to be able to spoof a German, Swiss or Austrian
postal code (the don't realy mind if you do this - I still use my dutch
postal code, but can't create a new email adress with that one)

Just give it a try. You might even inprove your foreign Language skill if
you do ;-)

I think HotPOP offers what you want for free and even more for the 10
schamoleans your are willing to pay.

Thanks! I'll give gmx.net a try. I found a German postcode to use via google
within a few minutes. By coincidence a lot of my email correspondents are
from Germany. I know rudimentary German and should be able to handle it with
online translators. Hopefully gmx.net is OK. Awhile back AOL was rejecting
all email from t-online.de

You will need a valid phone number for the same area as the street address
too. (But it is easy to look up some institution or factory on the web and
get those facts.)

And you need to know the german language really well to complete that
application and get the free mail account.

There are a lot of pages of choices to fill in.
I got a new email account there now, so it works, if you navigate through
the application procedure correctly.

I often feel thankful to my old school teacher in the german language.
We called him Bloody-Mats, because he tolerated no disturbances.
We had to learn german or die :-)

I later got a big satellite dish and found out that most free tv-channels
in Europe are german, and I have watched german tv since 1988.
So I had no problems getting a mail account with gmx.net.

Yeah, creating an account is a real pain now... It used to be a site with
German, English French and Spannish translations. But a new management...

On the other site, When you are finished with registring, you have a full 10
MB POP3 adress for free (and for those who are not too keen on spamming: It
has a good spamfilter (espacialy considering it is all for free)

I guess it is a special qualification you need to have to be able to teach
German, I suppose (Or we had the same teacher, but I dout it) ;-)

good nature movies on vriday night.... ;-) Though Italy (Rai uno) has also a
very nice game shows.

Thanks for you help. Yes the telephone number slowed me down a little, but
google found a way.
Finally, I had a success!: "Ihr GMX Spamschutz ist nicht aktiv!"
The question is whether it is truly without any spam filters, which only
testing will tell for sure. My friend from Italy uses the aliceposta.it
domain for his email which causes spamcop to have caniption fits... :)

turned off.
