Another weekend and this weekend passed by with a smile on my face, as I put on my head gears to check out this unique service of it's own kind, which is really good.
Mail sites till now were only concentrating on providing free email service, but this site as decided to move out of the track and do something different.
So what's the difference you ask, you must have come across sites which BOLD words saying ''FREE EMAIL SERVICE'', but this site doesn't have any such highlighted words.
But it has only a green sunflower like thing which is smilingly welcoming you to this site and asking you some simply fields to fill in.
mail2web is what they call this and what it really is surely worth to be checked out.So let's roll in and check out.
--------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to mail2web
--------------------------------------------------------
So what is mail2web.com all about and what exactly is mail2web.This question still stands, well then the answer is...
Welcome to mail2web a complete new site with a difference launched in 1996 by SoftCom Technology Consulting Inc.
This site helps you check your email account for only one single sites and gives you another option instead for your general site like Yahoo!.
It takes your email address and your password and that's it you can now check your mail from this site which gives you some limited options to help you at least know what's inside your in box.
So when you login, don't except many options as you except in your email service provider.
Mail2web is only here to help you check that's it.

MA! I fear their security

Then they take your data from your email server and displays it in front of you and when you click on LOG OFF.You are forgotten by them and their shall remember no information about you and no information is recorded.
So if you fear about SPAM mails and other fears then be aside as they have no such fear in them, so why is it in you?
