And they still don't make coffee either.


What do I look for in a web-based mail program? Usually more than I can get. For me the three most important qualities are support for Hebrew, the ability to check POP mail accounts, and ease of use. I suppose that over the years I've opened over twenty accounts on seven or eight different sites, only to discover after a relatively short period of use that most of them don't offer what I want. After all, even when the big three are taken care of, there's always more to want - the ability to check my web mail from my POP account for instance, and as many MB of disk space as possible. Hotmail offers many more services than I might possibly want. Its Hebrew is passable, but it's incredibly slow at checking POP mail. Hotmail in Hebrew really does work in Hebrew, but for some reason it doesn't let me check my web mail in Outlook Express, and it's not very fast either. I don't want to pass judgement on other web-based programs (other than NewMail) because it's been so long since I tried them that some may have greatly improved since I last checked them out (and others undoubtedly disappeared).
