My internet provider suspended my account. They have even locked me out of my e-mail which I used on an msn server. Is there a way for me to access my e-mail?

If you are saying that you have an MSN / Hotmail or windows live mail account you can access them through the windows live mail website, your ISP cannot control it since you can access it via any ISP from any computer anywhere in the world.
However if you mean that the email address was provided by your ISP then the only way to get back into it is to make your peace with them and pay the bill or whatever the issue is.

yeah....i owe....i have begged them to let me access my mail for 5 minutes....there's info on there i need. they don't care!!!just want the$$$$$

by mayhem1969

they're not going to let you access the email until they're paid...otherwise, you arguably could access it, print it off or whatever, and then not pay the bill, cause you got what you needed.

a Library, College, or other spot that has public use computers.

Paying your bill is going to be the only solution to getting your e-mail.

Being that you mentioned 'msn' you may have not used it for a period of time and the account has expired.

You may, rightly or wrongly, have been flagged as a source of spamming.

You might have been caught by a Crawler detecting foul language in your email content.

It might be for another reason.

However, you should have been told why your account is now unavailable.

How would going to a public computer make a difference?

by tig2

Even though the mail server you were using was MSN, if your ISP has you locked out, you will not be able to access that account.

About all you can do at this point is use an internet based system such as hotmail or gmail and establish a new account. Then pass that address to anyone you correspond with. This provides you with an account that you can access from any computer anywhere.

If you have correspondence that you MUST retrieve, you're gonna have to pay off the ISP.

If your ISP, like mine, provides for webmail access - where I can logon with a browser not outlook or other mail client...

and if they are not together enough to have disabled that access when they disabled your ability to logon....

...then you might be able to access them from a public terminal - and then forward all your emails to a non ISP email provider like Yahoo or hotmail......

But thats a few ifs...
