i like Gmail too, and ads do not bother me, as I receive my emails in my email client (there is even a choice of POP3 or Imap) and I have my account on my Blackberry phone too.

The only time I would go online to look at my email would be if I am away from home and I do not have my phone with me (highly unlikely), or if I need to alter any settings in my account, and then I might have a look at my emails while I am there.

About the spam coming in: NO system is 100% foolproof, with Gmail, my spam is limited to an absolute minimum, compare the massive amounts of spam that would come in with Hotmail, for example.

I used to get a fair amount of spam in my Inbox account too.
I have not checked whether the fact that they do no longer accept new registrations is true or not, though.

Another good one you can use is GMX too.
It is also free, offers POP3 as well as Imap access (of course, webmail too, like all the others), and is very reliable.

To be quite honest, I have not heard about any of those services needing invitations to be able to sign up.
Just try to go to the GMX website and you will see you can sign up immediately without any problem whatsoever.

And, like I said, if you do not like the ads, try to do what I did, set the service up in an email client or on a smartphone.
