After the hours of dealing with your email provider of finally resetting your account and getting your online identity back, how do we keep our contacts and email safe again? Of course a solid password is very important as is securing all your devices.
If you use Microsoft Outlook and must have journal or tasks, then get a Microsoft Exchange account. This normally isn't free. Although you may have it as a perk of your Comcast business account.
Now that you are starting from scratch, unable to do a restoral, my typical recommendation is go Google. A Google account let's you have a lot for free:
If you don't use Outlook, this backs up most email and contact info, and it's free: http://lifehacker.com/5102886/kls-mail-backs-up-your-browser-email-and-contacts

Now that you are starting from scratch, unable to do a restoral, my typical recommendation is go Google. A Google account let's you have a lot for free:
- Free email.
- Email on your phone.
- Don't have your computer? Check your email on any web browser.
- Don't have internet? Keep saved copies locally, update when next online.
- Saves drafts as you type.
- 8 Free gigabytes of storage, more if you pay. I almost never delete emails and I've used only 8%. It's plenty.
- Contacts everywhere, synced to many phones and computers
- Still backup locally, just in case. (Suggestions below.)
- Google Voice: free telephone
- transcribed voice mail which sends a text transcript to your mobile phone to read (easy to do during a meeting)
- free PC to phone calling
- smart forwarding to where you are.
