Question

Mail.com IMAP access!

Feb 12, 2013 6:22AM PST

I registered on MAIL.COM site. I CAN send/receive mails over IMAP on my mobile. But in their site is written that this is premium feature! Is it that really and I have some trial time, or it is already free?

I see the same message.

Since they pollute email with ads, why use them?

The premium service is ad free.

The free version is ad supported. Their choice to add them or not, when they see fit.

Today, clean, tomorrow, anyone's guess.

GMAIL does pop3 if you need it.

GMX.com and Mail.com

I really can understand something - GMX Mail is with FREE IMAP access and no ads. Mail.com wants you to pay, but I'm still with IMAP and it works! The two sites are absolutely SAME! Maybe mail.com offers free access, or it's trial, but GMX offers really free.. I really don't know, but I prefer mail.com, because domain is more cool than gmx.com...
