Free email services are great, but they often come at the price of tons of ads crowding a slow-loading and inflexible web-based interface.

Not so with FastMail. FastMail shows ads sparingly, and you get IMAP access from any desktop email client that makes up for the limited online mailbox size of free FastMail accounts.
But try the web-based access and you'll fall in love with its flexibility and power, too. The message editor can even re-format replies properly and includes a feature-full HTML editor for rich emails as well.

It is also a welcome and particularly useful change from other web-based accounts that FastMail allows you to put any email address in the From: line of your messages.

When you read emails in FastMail, you can choose different views — plain text, HTML, a print view or the raw source —, but even with the rich formats, FastMail protects your privacy and does not automatically download remote images.

FastMail's filtering interface may look confusing at first, but it is quite sensible and versatile. Basic spam and virus protection is in place, but free FastMail accounts lacks a personally trainable junk mail filter for even more accuracy. (For-pay accounts do include very precise Bayesian filtering.)
