I don't really use my mail.com account that much anymore, but I did/do use it enough to be able to write a reasonable opinion.
I found mail.com by searching for free email sites on yahoo. There was something about it there that made it stand out from the rest. I used it quite successfully for a number of months and never had on problem.
You get a choice of domain names when you first sign up. These are not really the most original names but it doesn't really matter does it. If you want a fun address I'd recommend www.another.com where the choice of funny domain names is just huge. This on nestles somewhere in between the likes of yahoo and another.com that I just mentioned. It very functional and reliable.
The site is well designed, and access to incoming mail is easy. It pops up fast. Sometimes though, its as iff it doesn't load properly. I found that by clicking on the get new mail button, it all comes up straight away.
The only problem that I had (quite a major one actually - I take back that no problem bit from the start), was that I found the process of setting up any personal folders quite difficult. I just ended up with a really really full inbox. I'm sure that with a bit of work I'd have solved this, but it should be a lot easier in the first place.
I still would definitely recommend this site to anyone looking for a reliable email service.
