Lycos Mail is an email service provided by Lycos Inc, which is one of the oldest and most established web portals in the world. After being founded in 1995 it quickly became one of the most popular search engines in the world, however, strong competitors such as Yahoo and Google soon showed up and Lycos.com along with most of its services was soon forgotten.
Lycos.com was probably dismissed as a powerful search engine by most internet users several years ago, but other services and sites on their network survived, email was one of them, and it is probably one of the most popular webmail services available on the market today. It’s not the most advanced webmail service on the planet, I can tell you that, but it’s easy to use and effective. Lycos Mail is probably not as feature rich and useful as other free email services like Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and Outlook, but it does have some nice features to it such as 5GB of storage, POP3 and IMAP access, advanced spam filtering, domain and address blocking, unlimited size attachments, virus protection, and more. On the other hand, the service lacks important features such as rich text editing, and a way to easily organize and search your emails using something similar to Gmail’s labels feature for example.

That’s very weird Francisco, must be an auto update or something like that. Through which page are you trying to sign in to your account?
Unable to login to the lycos mail. Whenever, I attempt to sign in with my username, another webpage opens to alibaba.com. This has been happening. Could they go back to skipping advertisements, since it takes precious time off our work.
Hi Marissa, I don’t think that the problem is Lycos, I think that you have a virus on your web browser and that’s why you’re getting taken to another page.
