I don’t know how many of u have already tried this but i recently tried opening India.Com | All New, All Fresh, All India (i didn’t know it existed till that time ) and i found out that its a email service rendering site and the site and domain are not affiliated with or owned by any government or municipal authority.
Just register for email account there and you have " YourOwnCustomName@india.com " email address.
Nice… Just signed up…
Can u just post how you feel about the service and ease of access.
Got it. Nice. Fast. But a little bland looking.
IMO in.com is a really good experience for me.
THe main site is a true bollywood and news hub with songs, videos etc etc.
Plus the id is really small, like mine’s
…**(^^..@in.com That’s it!!!
Tried to create a/c, but it says [quote]
We’re sorry, but something went wrong
We’ve been notified about this issue and we’ll take a look at it shortly.

Created an A/c
A nice thing to have the site in bengali also
Well… It is simple and without much hype. Just the way I like it.
This is nowhere close to my Windows Live mail but then, it is pretty new, we ought to give it some time to develop.
Created one too..
Don’t know what happed first time.
Just registered, thanks to the OP..
It is a simple email page but I think India.com is a priviledge to have with your original name, unlilke having to add 123, 987 etc 
Err…there’s IN.COM.
Yeah… But India.com feels better!!!
got myself a new id .. for the 1st time i got my name.surname@country.com xD … name.surname was never avilable on other sites :(((
EXACTLY feels goood
well i guess thats the most patriotic email id someone can ever get.
Well… U don’t know mine as of yet…
EDIT: I dunno if I am supposed to post my mail ID here… 
Beat that!! 
I was generalizing and relating to @india.com
Try visiting us.com or australia.com they are either owned by Domain registrars or Government Tourist portals.
We are having a weak cyber law… This may be one benefit of that.
That’s coz here in India, most govts use .gov.in
via this account we can access our other external mails(gmail, yahoo etc) right in that inbox. cool sort of web based email client
To add external mail accounts go to options–> Mail section → External Mail → Fill in your POP/IMAP settings.
^^ But this is also available in Windows Live Mail for a long time…
In fact, I have created a separate Gmail folder and diverted all my gmail mails to my Win Live mailbox.
Well, this is feature is available on almost all popular web based email clients like gmail, yahoo, windows live, rediffmail etc.
thanks OP got it
