Looking for a webmail provider that is not constantly fucking with the inbox format

[eridani]

Yahoo just made it impossible to list all emails, go to the first or last email, and scroll through emails page by page. The new format is utterly useless to me, and they won't let you go back to the old one. Which webmail provider is most likely to minimize this constant bullshit "improvement" nonsense?

1. Does it have to be webmail?

You can set up Gmail to fetch messages with Outlook or another mail reader.

10. I want to specifically avoid doing email from my desktop

Not sure how I'd even access it by laptop or other remote machine.

11. It's pretty easy to do

if you have Outlook (or a free client like Thunderbird) you can set it up easily enough following the instructions here: https://support.google.com/mail/troubleshooter/1668960?hl=en

3. forget gmail then

Hotmail has stayed pretty much the same for quite a while.

4. Believe it or not, I have found

that Hotmail is the one that refrains from such nonsense the best. I hate the constant (and often troublesome) changes, so I keep going back th Hotmail because it doesn't keep yanking the familiar rug out from under me! I have several other email accounts--including two on Gmail, but they all give me trouble--and I don't have time or energy to deal with stupid change for the sake of change redesigns.

9. Can you still get hotmail? I thought that those accounts were merged into Outlook.com

Maybe people with old accounts were allowed to keep them?

12. Yep, Hotmail is now Outlook only. Everyone had to make the switch - and it sucks.

5. Thunderibird is a resident client that gets you email from the other sources so their

format is irrelevant. Set it up however you like it and that's it.

6. Well, definitely not gmail.

I'd use a software provider like suggested upthread rather than relying on the email site to satisfy your needs.

7. Random guess: Gmail is DONE with messing with it.

Thus I vote for gmail.

8. Cause they've messed around so much they can't possibly do more?

I don't believe it. They are one of those companies like Microsoft that fuck with stuff constantly.

13. Try Hushmail.

It is set up to be private and anonymous but the real benefit is the simple, straight forward interface that doesn't change anywhere near as often as the others.

14. configure whatever email client you have on your system to access your POP account
