You could set it up to log on and off at intervals. The other suggestion was
yahoogroups, it's a thought but beware of spam once you give your details.
I've had an email address from my other isp for about a year and used it
only for personal email, no spam ever attracted, I joined a couple of
yahoogroups with it and immediately was up to 10 spam a day.

Another thought is approach your local lug, there might be an enthusiast
with a computer and some spare space who is willing to you for some
small payment, beer or similar
