    Gmail is very good and free. heres a guide http://www.marthas-web.com/gmail.htm
    Edit...dont use hotmail. They will charge you for the privilage of forwarding your emails. Yahoo can be set up too..http://www.scrippy.com/help/mail/yahoooe.htm
    but gmail has a better service. more storage, less spam etc
