Free Email account to use with Eudora or Mozilla firebird?

[Erik W]

Hi!
I am looking for an email service to use with a client like Eudora. I don't wan't an Internet account like yahoo, hotmail etc.

Anyone that knows of some free service like that?
I'd prefer an older company that is stable and have provided the service for years.

I have searched the net but cannot find anything like that(100s of others though).
thx guys
