Need list of freemail providers

    Due to troublemakers and spammers I have had to ban free, web based email addresses from my vbulletin forum.

    Trouble is, my current list is nowhere near long enough. I am looking for a comprehensive list of as many free web-based email providers as possible.

    If any other vbulletin administrators out there have an up-to-date, comprehensive list, can you dump it somewhere on a webpage so I (and others) can do a cut and paste into the banned email section of the vbulletin admin area.

    I would be veeeeeeeeeeeery appreciative! :D

    Thanks in advance!

    do you think it's a good idea to ban all free emails? I for one would never use my "real addy" on a forum. i am guessing using captcha and all that has not worked :D

    Thanks for the links! Appreciated! Was hoping for a cut and paste from another vbulletin admin so I could just do the same. Anyone?

    My forum has reached critical mass and it will keep expanding as long as I continue to watch over it and moderate it. The problem of troublemakers is a real one for me. If I have a member on a dynamic IP and I ban them, all they do is log out out the forum, sign up for another junk email and start posting again. This in spite of captcha and email verification. Requiring a real email address definitely slows them down as much as possible. It has become inevitable for me.

    You'd be surprised how many people give up their primary email when they really want to be a part of an interesting community. ;)
