Are there any free (or cheap) email services which work well with PokerTracker?

My old university account got deleted (I graduated), and my Juno and Yahoo accounts aren't working very well for importing my games. Since I play alot, having an easy to import email address would be very nice.

Please let me know. Thanks!

Get a hotmail account and access it through Outlook Express.

Score! I didn't know you could do that. 2+2 rocks. Thanks Anadrol!

Do I still have to save the hand history as a .txt file, or is there an easier way?

I'm hoping there's an easier way, as saying them to text files first is a bit of a hassle.

Can you give me the lowdown on how to access my hotmail account through OE?

- Thanks, Homer

Homer: I could access it, but I couldn't get PokerTracker to work.

Here's what I did: Signed up for a free email at hotpop.com and then I use POP it to Outlook Express and use PokerTracker. I highly recommend hotpop.com

I can't get PT to directly access my HH files from Hotmail, even though it is now linked to OE. So what I'm doing now is copying the e-mails from my Hotmail file to my e-mail address that I have through my internet provider, which I also access with OE, and PT is able to find the HH's.

If you access hotmail through outlook does this give you more space? My problem is that the hand histories take up too much of my hotmail space...will this solve this problem?

The hand histories have to be in your "Local Folders Inbox" and not your "Hotmail Inbox" so you have to move them there and PT will find them.

I was going to recommend Hotpop.com but someone beat me to it.

No, you'll still have the same amount of space. I shelled out $20 to get more space, because I'm a sucker.
