At first glance, the price of this ultra-premium service from Lycos seems remarkably steep, but it's by far the most comprehensive email service we've seen. Top of its features has to be the domain name, which gives you a good chance of creating an email address that's unique and interesting. It also comes with a mammoth 10GB of storage space. With so much room to play with, you've also got the option of using some of it as online storage – handy if you're the type to misplace keyring-sized USB memory sticks between your home and the office.

It's also the best looking of the services in our opinion. This helps with its ease of use, as everything is well laid out and easy to find.

Verdict
A contact database is available and you can import your Address Book as a .CSV file, but there's no way of synchronising the calendar with other software or devices.
