Any suggestions for a good, reliable e-mail service?

As far as spam goes, no filter will be 100% but the amount of spam you receive is directly proportional to how much you use a particular address.

One effective technique I have used in the past is to have a separate email address that I use just for PBEM, this seems to reduce the amount of spam I get mixed in with my PBEM stuff.

Also Outlook express has a nice feature that allows you to setup message rules that will move incoming messages into separate mail folders based on different criteria.

For example .. If I'm playing 4 games at the same time, I will setup 4 mail folders (one for each game) and a message rule for each opponent that I am playing so that only their incoming mail gets sent to their folder ..... Its really quite easy to setup and maintain and takes very little time ....
