A friend of mine pays USD 19.95 per month at attglobal.net. He wrote
that he never reached any minimum, although he receives about hundred
emails per day. Also, AFAIK, local phone calls are free in most places
in the US. So, your mother may surf the web and receive birthday or
X-mas greetings from all her children, possible grand-children, friends
and neighbours ... :)
