Freewwweb is the only one I know of that will work on a Non-Windows
box. Of
course, I have an evil plan involving proxying through a 486 running
Wingdings. See screenshot(s) at

I don't recommend trying this on a full stomach, by the way... it
sure is a
lot of fun though.
As for Freewwweb, STAY AWAY. They have no clue how to run a SMTP
server. I get ALL of my mail bounced back to me because they don't
have a record of valid dial-up IP assignments. (e.g. This message
was cut and pasted from a bounce and re-composed online.)
