Group:Free Software Webmail Systems

If you want to maintain software freedom while using webmail, there are a variety of good choices.

• Gmail: You can sign in and use Gmail without non-free Javascript, but you have to make the account in a special way, through https://accounts.google.com/NewAccount. This is an old sign-up form;

the currently recommended sign-up form is no good, since it requires nonfree Javascript code.

• Mail.ru: Sign up, sign in, and webmail all work smoothly.

• Fastmail: Sign up, sign in, and webmail all work smoothly. This is a

paid service with a 60-day free trial.

• Some services will let you sign up and sign in without non-free Javascript, and use IMAP/POP3 from a desktop program, but have broken webmail:
  • Vfemail.net
  • Safe-mail.net
  • Shortmail.com

This list is growing all the time! For updates, corrections, and new nominees, please send a message to tv using the domain codepuzzles.org.
