Email Links

Winnipeg Public Library is not an Internet Service Provider (ISP) and does not provide or administer customer email accounts. However, free web-based email accounts may be used on the computers with Internet access at the Library. Once your account has been set up, you may send and receive messages whenever you can get access to the World Wide Web.

There are many sites on the Internet where you can set up a free email account. While library staff may not be able to assist customers in using these accounts, setting one up should be fairly straightforward. Each email site will provide instructions on how to create and use an account.

The following list is just a selection of the numerous free email sites available on the Web:

Graffiti Mail
This free email service offers users a strong "anti-spam" policy designed to reduce the amount of unsolicited mail in member accounts.

Hotmail
Microsoft's Hotmail is one of the largest "freemail" providers on the web. The service is easy to use and has many special features and customizing options.

Lycos Mail
Lycos Mail is the full service email/instant messenger system affiliated with the Lycos search service.

Mail Excite
This service is powered by WhoWhere, the web e-mail search engine & directory. Full service email accounts are available.

Yahoo! Mail
Yahoo's freemail service is another popular site offering standard e-mail features & customizing options.
