Because I don't see 100 gigs in my gmx.com account.

I have said very clearly in my original post, it's GMX.net

OK..I beleive you. I just dont get it..if i sign up i see this:


https://www.gmx.net/mail/tarifvergle...tarifvergleich


do you have an older account with them?
If you type in gmx.de...it automaticaly redirects you to their .net website.
I have an older gmx.com acc...and there only 50 gigs. That acc i made back in 2011..

Anyway...100 gigs is awesome..!!

However knowing German "technology" I'd rather prefer Yandex anyday,-) Also German authorities spy a lot..which i dont like.

And before you guys start about the fact that Yandex is russian and give me the Putin rap...well it is...but they also have servers in the Netherlands and in Finland..,-) which are EU countries. Thats why i use them.

Also, good luck getting confirmation sms to them (they may be already blocked by ukr.net and other services).

Did you try it??

Trust me it works:-)

The problem is that they offer the interface only in Ukrainean and Russian language, which is of course logically because this is their target audience, but for a foreign user it makes it tricky.

For the same reason I didn't create a walla.co.il account yet, despite speaking basic Hebrew. I am afraid though the more technical terms would be too complex for me to use the webmail interface in a decent way if there is no English translation available.

I would stick to services which have an interface in a language I speak fluently, basic knowledge (such as my knowledge of Hebrew and Spanish) I would hesitate because sometimes some less common terms appear in an interface.

I checked their website out of interest and it seems really interesting. However, from what I can see (maybe I misinterpretate?) you can have 5 accounts for free per domain. Which basically means that if you have multiple domains you connect to Postale.io, you can have more than 5 free mailboxes.
I do wonder if they have a solid business plan to continue offering such service without financial troubles, because what they offer is good. Good, and probably not cheap to maintain.

This experience dates from over 10 years ago, so maybe this is no longer relevant, but I found canceling or transfering a domain out of OVH quite tough. In addition to slow registration process. But as I said, maybe things changed for the better, it was 11 or 12 years ago when I used them. I also no longer register domains I may not want to keep, so I wouldn't cancel domains anyway ; however, transfering to another registrar should still go smoothly.

Naaa its originaly in Ukrainian...,-) i admit the site is a bit messy...but thats "normal" in these parts of the world..hahahahaha

I use Yandex browser and it translates the website just fine into English.

When using Chrome it translates just fine into Dutch.(my native language)

I think you can read Dutch Berenburger,-)

ukr.net indeed is a very fine free webmail provider. You can also use it via Thunderbird (or any otrher emailclient) fe.
