I know that when sendmail.ru was announced on POP3 it proved to be a 
popular domain for many of our subscribers.  So here is another Russian 
domain webmail/pop3 service that you may wish to obtain an account:

http://www.mail.ru/

Yikes!  It's in Russian. <g>  No problem.  See that "English" link in 
the upper right corner?  Click it and all will be clear. :-)

http://eng.mail.ru/

That's better. :-)

Okay, be aware that you'll be required to fill out a fairly long form 
on two pages.  And the form had a few glitches.  I had to redo a few 
things before it accepted my application.

Now then, the POP3 Server is simply:  mail.ru

However, the site states that they "recommend" you use your own SMTP 
and it does not give you an SMTP.  So you would figure they don't allow 
smtp, huh?  Well, I wasn't taking a no for this.  I am getting smarter 
about these things. <g>

I whipped out an Internet Utilities program and found out they do have 
a sending mail exchanger.  So you can enter an SMTP of:  mx.mail.ru


Try it.  I thought it worked pretty fast considering the distance 
between me and the server.
