Can someone suggest a free email service that is suitable for kids? What
I am looking for is one that doesn't have ads for gaming, etc. in its
banners. Other than that I haven't really thought about what it means to
be "suitable for kids" although I welcome suggestions.
Taya has been asking for one and I'd been holding off but I think 10 is
old enough for a supervised email (I told her that she had no right to
privacy with this one, we would have to know the PW and userID so we
could check if we wanted to... and no chatting).
I've never really thought about this before, I've always had email
through one of my accounts, but I think that a web based mail approach
is the way to go for Taya.

| (...) Well, I'll tell you this much - don't choose hotmail. They don't have ads for gaming, though they do have ads for chatting. The biggest prob, though, is the trash mail I get - unsuitable for any child. I ignore it, but a kid might just check (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
