I needed to set up an e-mail account for a club I belong to and am tired of the way Yahoo changes things constantly so did a search and found this site that gives a good list as well as reviews of the different free e-mail providers. Just hit the link below to get to the reviews. Goodgrief Free email services remain the center of web activity, driving communication for work and personal use. From social networking update alerts to the sending and receiving of documents, email has truly become a necessity for modern correspondence. Most of us have been using the same email service for the past decade when multiple companies like Yahoo, Google, and Hotmail first launched such services. But recent developments for email providers indicate an upcoming push towards innovative updates, making this a great time to compare free email services. In the list below we’ve reviewed over ten of the best free email services ranging from the four major providers to smaller niche/business email services. These are not in any specific order of rankings other than the most popular four are listed at the top and all the others are randomly positioned beneath. We will continue to update this article as new email services become available. Thus, if you believe we’ve left any important free email services out, please leave a comment and we’ll add it to the review. tomuse.com/free-email-services-review/#ixzz2P8NKtn6c

I assume it is probably because you used one for times that spam is generated more. Such cases are purchases at online retailers. They will typically use the email you give them for advertisments and weekly deals (even if you check the box that is marked "Don't send deals"). Also whenever you sign up for anything that requires an email, you are at risk of receiving follow-up emails. I signed up for an Indiana DNR account (to reserve a camping spot). I now get emails from the DNR about once a week for park stuff that is going on. I also have 2 yahoo emails. One is what I use for signing up for stuff. I still check it every now and then, but it is mostly to delete the crap.

I opened an account on the one at mail.com
It works very well with the exception of taking a little longer to open. But I am very happy with it.
Glad to see others got something out of this thread.
