Well, bad news for all Bluebottle.com freemail users. This company will stop its freemail service from June 20, 2008. Existing free users need to upgrade to Access(Rs: 450/yr) or Premium (Rs: 1000/yr) to continue using the service!
This email is to inform you that Bluebottle Solutions Pty Ltd has re-acquired
the Bluebottle email service from Trusted Delivery Pty Ltd.

We have conducted a detailed review of the business, including all of the
available options, and have concluded that in order to for us to be able to
continue providing the Bluebottle service to our Access and Premium customers
we will need to discontinue our Freemail service on June 20, 2008. Our
decision was not an easy one but was necessary to reduce the significant
resources required to manage the free service. This change will enable us to
provide a superior email service to our paid customers.

If you would like to keep your Bluebottle email address, you can simply
upgrade to either an Access (US$9.95/year) or Premium (US24.95/year) account
through your webmail environment anytime before June 20, 2008. If you choose
not to upgrade you will need to download your wanted email from your account
before the Freemail service closes on June 20, 2008. Customers with an
existing Access or Premium account do not need to make any changes.

We would like to thank you for your loyal support of Bluebottle and we do
apologise for any inconvenience the closure of the Freemail service may cause
you.

Kind regards,

Robert Pickup
Bluebottle Solutions Pty Ltd
At this moment, I wish anything from this company gives some more grace time to users to shift their mailboxes!.....Just 8 days? Seems like a tactic to compel users to upgrade!

Soutce: Got a email from them. All BlueBottle users can check their inbox!

because when you send an 'important' email message, it looks bad to have a Shaadi.com banner below it.

a free email box is ok for forum sigups, newsletter subscriptions, etc.
