With 5 GB of free space, Inbox.com can also comfortably be your Archive.com, but the size is not the only argument in favor of making Inbox.com your email service of choice.

For starters —and for everyday pleasure —, there's a web interface that is both fast and functional. It could be a tad more simple and offer even more convenience (drag and drop, keyboard shortcuts), though.

Finding all that archived mail works nicely using Inbox.com's search engine, and usually sufficient filters sort mail to custom folders. It's a pity the filters do not integrate with another great organizing feature, labels.

Color-coded, Inbox.com's free-form labels help you organize mail in flexible ways, and conversation view brings together related emails easily. Smart folders and better integration of address book and email messages would be great, though.

Inbox.com's spam filters perform reasonably well with little false positives and very little spam coming through. For even more protection, you can set up a convenient challenge/response filter that lets only authorized senders reach your Inbox.com Inbox.

When viewing any mail, Inbox.com protects you privacy not downloading remote images automatically. When writing any mail, you can make use of rich formatting using the functional editor, which lets you put any of your email addresses in the From: line, too.

You can also access your Inbox.com account with a desktop email program using POP and SMTP. With all of Inbox.com's web-based splendor, IMAP access is not a must, but it would be nice to have.
