Which e-mail provider are you using with your MBP?

[jmy2469]

I was just wondering which e-mail provider you are using with your MBP's? I have yahoo,the basic version, found out that you need the paid version to get things to work correctly. Do not feel like paying to get my e-mail. Thanks for the info. John

If you want free email that works well with Apple Mail, try Gmail: Email from Google with IMAP, instead of POP.

This is definitely the way to go with a Mac.
