New Environment Friendly Free Mail Service

Think Host, a Portland based web hosting company, decided to change things in the free email services market and launched a service with a green edge to it ? free email accounts that are powered by renewable energy. If you need free mail services and like to keep your environment safe in the process then Think Host`s solution is the one for you.

The new service, Community Mail, is one of the very few email providers offering environmentally conscious consumers with a totally free and green web mail alternative. Think Host`s Executive Director, Vladislav Davidzon, explains. "Given our expertise in web hosting, our solid history of sponsoring community oriented projects and utilizing renewable resources wherever possible in our business, it seemed a natural extension to develop Community Mail. What`s most pleasing to us is that we are able to offer this environmentally friendly web mail service to all, absolutely free of charge."

Community Mail, powered by wind and solar derived energy sources, offers subscribers a choice of domain names for their free email address: community mail, activist, hippie mail, and global upgrising - with more to be added soon. Unlike some of its non-green counterparts, Community Mail subscribers are not subjected to banner advertising in their account interfaces. Among the many features of the Community Mail service is a calendar, user controlled spam filtering, encryption, anti-virus protection, task scheduler, address book and a powerful HTML editor, presented in a familiar Outlook style interface.
