Earthlink.net supports IMAP / SMTP
That means you don't have to use Earthlink.net webmail interface! You can check your emails using other email programs (like Mailbird, Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird). Using desktop email programs will make you more productive and your email will always be available, even offline.
