After a short test period, I have decided on a new email programme. It is called FastMail and is really as fast as the internet address - FastMail.fm - suggests. I decoded to go for the "enhanced" membership, and the features offered are pretty impressive. FastMail also has a weblog, so you are always informed about the provider's newest developments, and can search the archive if you have a question. Very nice - I'm impressed.

My previous email programme - Spamarrest - had its servers down recently, and had got slower in general. For mobile internet access with my phone - Nokia 6233 - it was annoyingly slow to have to wait for the website of Spamarrest to load, or for the synchronisation with Outlook.

FastMail enhanced functions in overview:

- 2 GB storage space

- 1 GB bw/month (+2 GB on signup)

- 1 GB file space (your own web site!)

- IMAP/POP/Web access

- SMTP for sending email

- Mail forwarding

- Virus checker; advanced spam filter

- 30 Aliases
