    Enjoy pop-up ads trying to sell you a subscription when you just want to view your inbox! The one bad thing about their service.

      They mentioned that they bought premium, so they won’t be seeing ads. Edit: Multiple people below are telling me that purchasing premium does not remove all ads, so that’s actually quite annoying.

      As an aside, I really don’t get the logic of using a service like e-mail and just expecting it to be free - it’s very bizarre to me.

      If it’s something important to you (as I assume e-mail is), pay for it - or stop whining about ads/nagging pop-ups.

      And if you can’t pay for it, download Dovecot and try doing it yourself - it’s a fun experience, and will make you appreciate the work done by email providers. Spoiler alert: it’s a massive pain in the butt.

        You get premium ads if you are on a plus subscription or a free account. Once you get premium though, then they start advertising the family pack to you!

          Hmm, guess I was wrong, then - that would be very annoying; especially if you’re getting pop-ups for a family plan you won’t ever be able to make use of as you’re a solo user.
