My apologies for asking such an OT question, but I think you guys are the most likely to make really useful suggestions.
Gmail has ceased to provide classic authorization for smtp, pop3 or IMAP access; they want users to employ their new authorization mechanisms. So, which email service do you guys recommend? I'd like to be able to access it in the old classic way, from different clients. Ideally it would be a free service (I don't store my messages on the server, but rather, download them to my client, so I don't need a lot of storage), and also likely to remain in operation for many years to come. Thanks in advance, Carlos Murillo.
