5/9     I'm using Wells Fargo's online statement. I like it a lot better than
        ETrade and other companies because they output my statement to a PDF
        file which I can keep. This is important for me because of a lawsuit
        that I was involved in where I couldn't produce a statement because
        my old bank didn't produce a PDF file (just plain HTML) and didn't go
        back further than 6 months. What bank do you have, how long do they
        keep statements, and do they output PDF or HTML?
        \_ So they court would have accepted PDF or paper, but not HTML?  Why?

        \_ Personally, for my financial related documents, I choose to receive
           the paper version instead of the online version for exactly the
           reason you mentioned above.
           \_ Seconded.  I still choose paper statements for this reason, even
              though I know I'm risking ID theft at my mailbox.
        \_ I use TD Waterhouse as both a brokerage and a bank account. The
           statements they have on their website are in HTML format, but they
           keep them around / available forever.
        \_ Don't know which OS you are using, but most financial
           institutions with online services have a "view printable
           version of statement" link, which I click on, and then print
           the ensuing HTML page to a PDF file on my Mac.

4/8     What's a good free e-mail provider? I don't want to use Gmail,
        Yahoo, Outlook, or any of those sites with features I never use that
        track my personal info and keep changing their interface. I want just
        simple e-mail without privacy issues or all the baggage these large,
        for-profit companies are adding. I might even be willing to pay.
        Recommendations?
