some people have learned to live without email but that doesnt mean everyone else has thrown it out. i mean, i leave my away message on all the time so if i dont want to talk to someone i just ignore them and they dont get mad, so not wanting to talk to someone is not an issue for me but i still couldnt do without email.
if i where u guys i would pay for a email account with a small ISP , someone who isnt traceing all your emails for key words [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
google's gotta make some loot, i just got a couple accounts, they're tight. they're not tracing, just searching for certain already established keywords to adjust the small text only ads they put up. so far gmail has been fast loading, unlike the server busy notes i get from hotmail
for me, gmail been pretty buggy. the servers have sometimes been really slow and sometimes not even work at all. and i dont like how they are obssessed with archinving. sure, they give you 1gb of storage but there is still stuff i would like to delete. it took me like 5 minutes to find out that the delete was under that drop down menu instead of being a button. they need to tweak their interface for sure.
werks gr8 4 me, deletion is hard to do, mainly since they want to search it, but the extra space is welcome for me
HAH! Those who say E-mail is useless, are pretti messed up.
without e-mail no paypal
Aim Works, but i gotta wait 3 hours from an old friend of mine to get online cause hes from cal...
with e-mail u cant do alot of stuff especailly if u order stuff online....
or u work at home with a P.C.
G-maill may keep a copy of your e-mails on their servers after you delete them, but it's something that all free e-mail providers do. There's nothing non-standard about what they're doing, and your the privacy of your e-mail isn't anymore in jeopardy with google than it is with any other free e-mail service provider.

I was supposed to be sent a gmail invitation (one of my friends had 10 invites to give out), but I never got mine. Maybe he screwed up my email address or something (or maybe Yahoo! Mail is blocking out gmail's invites now? o.O). Oh well. I was curious anyway.
I've got Yahoo! and it's pretty fine for me. The ads are flash images, but they're out of the way, so I'm not bothered by the ads as much (there was one point where they used pop-up ads for like a week.. I hated using Yahoo! mail that week...). I was also really happy with the upgrade too, since before it I was like 90% full most of the time.
i'll give away invitations as i get them, and update this thread. thats how i got mine so why not share [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
yeah both hotmail and yahoo upgraded their junx now, makes me wonder why they didn't do it so much earlier than now. silly 1mb attachment limits
i was just going to use gmail solely but now i guess i'll hang on to these ones too.
probably what i use email for the most is communication with my university
It's simple:
-IM is for talking to close relatives (or people you meet in chatrooms/forums)
-E-mail is for the rest (or close relatives who don't have IM)
its been a while, but i finally got some invites, anyone want one?
ME ME ME!
PLEASE!
send me a message w/ email addy
I still have 5 left here...
they keep giving me more the more i send out
