There used to be a lot of BBSs that would offer internet mail for really
low prices (this would have been around 95/96, I have no idea if they are
still around).  They can do it cheap because they only connect to the net
once a day to send and receive new mail.  That means theres a delay in
sending mail but it's better than nothing.
