    Especially those who were looking for suggestions for an email service provider

    I have discovered that sometime recently mail.com has disabled pop and
    imap until you subscribe.

    A service that appears to be related to mail.com, has allowed pop and
    imap activity from my mail clients - Thunderbird and K9 - so far.

    Try gmx.com


    Can you try also mail.de or mail.co.uk or mail.fr (the same company)? I
    am their premium user. They work just fine for me. And they accept
    payment by Paypal.

    Thanks.

    'Morning!

    If there is anybody from mail.com on the list   PLEASE  let us know how to overcome your quirks.

    The world of email quirks is a labyrinth.
    A good list that has e-mail administrators from around the planet is SDLU (Spammers Dont Like Us)
    it's mostly to discuss and combat spam,
    but the point is if you want to get in touch with people that acutally run e-mail services here and there,
    you're probably going to find them on this list.
    It also offers a rare glimpse into the minds of those who are in charge of operating mail servers that run most of our electronic communications.

    Also, you might want to discuss live at ##email on libera.chat which has around 150 users,
    exchanging knowledge and strategies to overcome most e-mail problems.


    Best,

    FYI: GMX & mail.com are both 1&1 companies, hence the more than
    similar
    look to their sites(read: they're almost identical). The only
    pertinent
    differences are their postal addresses. Germany for GMX and USA for
    mail.

    GMX.com is for global. while gmx.net/gmx.de is for Germany only (maybe
    CH and AT included).

    Though the official gmx.com/mail.com may not support free pop/imap for
    now, but you can try their third party cooperative services, such as caramail.com, which supports free imap/pop for long days.

    Thanks.
