I've used the following free email accounts in the past (web mail):
1. Hotmail (Microsoft)
2. Yahoo
3. Netscape
4. Gmail (Google's email)
Hotmail always worked well, but one day that deleted all my old sent/inbox messages during an upgrade or something and I wasn't happy about that. They also would cancel your email account if you forgot to log-in during a 30 day period. I had a cool and rare Hotmail handle and had to re-register for it twice in 6 years due to that and eventually I just gave up on Hotmail. It was nice and reliable, but that was annoying.
Yahoo ... has always had some killer email. Works great, it can even import POP email to check POP email when not at home. (POP is one of the "download to computer" email protocols).
Gmail ... huge mailbox and it's excellent. Only thing I don't like about it, is since I use FireFox I'm used to pressing my middle button and opening in a new Window, and Gmail uses some sort of Javascript and that doesn't work.
Netscape.Net, another free email provider. It works well and has a reasonably large mail box. But the page is slow as hell, just like anything else made by the company that gave us AOL. It's not bad otherwise, but the super slow page thing is enough to be annoying.
I like Yahoo's the best except @yahoo.com isn't as cool as being @gmail.com
