1000gb Email Account

Hi, I know that if you live in the US of A, you can get an email account from this website which gives you 1000gb (yes, 1000gb, not a typo) of storage space. I was just wandering if it was possible if you can get the same for an email account which people like me in the Uk or for any place in the world can also get. So, any suggestions?

The best thing to do is get an email acocunt of your choice (i.e. POP, http) and route it through Thunderbird or Outlook (then you are unlimited). What account in the U.S. gives you that much space???

Ok, so how am I supposed to go about doing that - route it to Thunderbird or Outlook Express?

Also, here is the site for the 1000gb email account: http://www.mailnation.net/

GMail give you unlimited, all you need is a cellphone or an invite, and about 60% of us have invites to it... Including me well in time they keep upgrading.

-Edit

I looked over the site you posted and saw this ".Fill out advertising forms twice a month (short forms)", lol im a lazy person I doubt I will even come around to finish those forms.

Yeah, true say, but I thought there might be a way to store files on there maybe. But ah well. It don't matter now anyways.

Yeah I'd go with tech's suggestion for e-mail.. that's how I do mine, yahoo e-mail which is 2GB storage too.
If you're after storage space you're better off going with a filehosting site such as rapidshare.de/megashares etc... depending on how long you want to store the files for.. with rapidshare, the files are kept for as long as you are a premium member (as long as you don't violate their terms and upload copyrighted materials.. but even then they don't notice them unless someone reports the files), which works out to around £5 a month at the moment and also entitles you to download upto 3GB a day from their servers too.

Anyway, let us know exactly what you want to use it for (as long as it doesn't violate the forum rules) and we'll try and help you out with suggestions

Actually I was suggesting using Microsoft Outlook of Mozilla's Thunderbird. If it's an account say @xtreme-source.com, that's usually setup as a POP account. If it's hotmail, that's http://. If you want to do it with hotmail, i recommend Outlook (it won't work with Thunderbird). Depending on what the extension is and the incoming and outgoing servers names...setups can vary.

Find out what the outgoing and incoming servers are for your preferred email account to route through one of those clients and we can help you get setup easily.
