Offers free webmail accounts powered by 100% renewable energy.
ThinkHost, Inc., a Portland based web hosting company, has recently launched a service with a twist - free webmail accounts powered by 100% renewable energy.
The company says that the new service, CommunityMail.net, is one of the very few email providers offering environmentally conscious consumers with a totally free and green webmail alternative. CommunityMail.net, powered by wind and solar derived energy sources, offers subscribers a choice of domain names for their free email address: communitymail.net, activist.cc, hippiemail.com and globalupgrising.com - with more to be added soon. Unlike some of its non-green counterparts, CommunityMail.net subscribers are not subjected to banner advertising in their account interfaces.
Among the many features of the CommunityMail.net 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, claims ThinkHost.
ThinkHost'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 CommunityMail.net. What's most pleasing to us is that we are able to offer this environmentally friendly webmail service to all; absolutely free of charge."
