      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Now that Google are scrapping their basic HTML version of their webmail, I&#039;m looking for a new webmail provider.<br />
<br />
Looking for recommendations, but, please read my requiremments.<br />
<br />
Firstly, the big things.<br />
<br />
1. I do not have, or want, a mobile phone, so any webmail that requires a phone number is useless to me.<br />
<br />
2. I&#039;m after something LIGHTWEIGHT.  I only have 2GB RAM on here.  The more lightweight, the better.<br />
<br />
....and the rest....<br />

3. I want something BASIC.  Send &amp; recieve emails, add small...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Google have announced that they will be closing the basic HTML version of Gmail in January.<br />
<br />
The bottom line is this : I keep all things Google forbidden / locked with Noscript in my Firefox.  That is non-negotiable.<br />
<br />
Google search actually works better with scripts forbidden - still functional but with less noise / clutter.<br />
<br />
So, I guess the only options open to me are...<br />
<br />
(1) Change my email<br />
<br />
or<br />
<br />
(2) Find a way of keeping some form of HTML Gmail alive.<br />
<br />
On option 2, I wonder if the...<br />
