http://www.gmail.com/ seems to work well enough, and allows POP access, so
you can use the email program of your choice, instead of being tied to one
specific web interface. Personally, I prefer http://www.opera.com/ for its
"best of breed" Unicode support and the slick integration of the various
components, but many will tell you http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird/ is
the platform of choice.

I suspect that is the easiest way.
