Update: Both the services quoted below have discontinued their free services. At this time I will suggest you opt for the 2.5+ GB GMail account which is free and open to all. It is also expected to last a long time.

There are two services I am aware of which provides free terabyte sized email account. For the idea to sink in the account size is 400 times larger than GMail account which is currently at around 2.5 GB and 1000+ times larger than Yahoo 1GB accounts.

  • Free 1000GB

Hellacious Riders used to provide 1TB accounts for its users (free registration). Their service sounds very homely. To quote:

We have been asked why we would do such a thing. The answer is simple to help people store large amounts of information in a safe and secure environment.

We live in a world where natural and un-natural events take place, that can destroy homes or offices, when that happens many people loose all of their family pictures, their furnishings, office equipment and more.

We decided that Hriders.com should do something more than just provide a place to receive large quantities of emails. What we have done is provide our members with a place to store their family pictures or home videos as well as store pictures of their home or office furnishings, in case something might be lost to an unexpected event.

Homes burn, earthquakes happen, floods and un-natural events take place all the time, and all to often we hear people say, well at least I survived but I lost everything, my family pictures are gone, I did not plan on this ever happening to me so I did not take videos or pictures of my belongs for the insurance company to prove to them that I had a music collection that I have had for over 20 years, or a $10,000 home theater system or 5 computers.

I would suggest that you grab one of these accounts as they may not last long. 1 Terabyte is really a big deal and unless there are using amazing technological innovations in storage media that the world is not aware of, free invitations won't last long.

Note: I do not use their services nor am I affiliated to either of them.
Note: Be very afraid to give out your personal email address. I would strongly suggest you use disposable email addresses.
