MemberWhich free e-mail service do you prefer overall?

ParticipantI vote for hotmail, however I hopw they will add some more mb’s there in the capacity someday.
But I also wanna mention the “other” email account which is walla at http://mail.walla.com. Lots of space, simple as hell.November 28, 2004 at 5:01 am #106101Oreo
MemberI LOVE Yahoo! (I know, BIG surprise coming from me). But it was the first one I used and liked way back in the 90’s. I first had Hotmail but REALLY liked Yahoo! much better….and I still do!

😀 As did I. I have tried several email services since the 90’s, and Yahoo! has seemed to be the best of them all for me. Boo ya Yahoo! [:P]

Participantoh screw you both then *thbbt* heheh, I guess I’m going to just go big and say gmail. Simple, quick, I like the reply format, yadda yadda, it’s not even a matter of the storage for me, I just like it better.

ParticipantLots of space and POP3 mail. What more could I need, Gmail? :p

MemberYeah, Gmail all the way. Great spam filter, very small ads and Massive Storage. Also, my college hasn’t banned it yet, unlike Hotmail and Yahoo.

ParticipantI think the user interface of Gmail is the best overall, I don’t need anywhere near that much space, It’s all about the UI for me.

ParticipantI have all 3, Yahoo is still my favorite though. Hotmail has always given me problems, so now I just use that account for some of the sites where entering an email address is required. That’s the account where all my spam goes. I like Yahoo simply because Yahoo is the only IM client I use and it alerts me to new mail. Only thing Yahoo is missing is POP access. I haven’t started using my g-mail much yet, but I do like it so far… just seems like too much of a hassle to switch over right now.

MemberI voted for Hotmail, basically because Gmail kept screwin with me, it was problem after problem. But when Gmail IS working, I like that better

MemberI’ve got to go with Oreo, i’ve used Yahoo Mail since I jumped on the Internet bandwagon.
I did briefly use Hotmail, just didn’t hit off with me though.

ParticipantI use Gmail becuse it has the most features of the free ones and you don’t have to pay to use the POP3.

ParticipantI used to use Hotmail, but several months ago Spike invited me to a Gmail account, and I’ve been lovin’ it ever since. Same as Dave, I like the simple user interface. It also has plenty of cool features and plenty of storage space.
Actually, maybe the only feature it’s missing is a rich-text toolbar, but I guess that depends if you really need it or not. (Personally, I haven’t needed one so far.)

MemberGmail, among the choices listed there. But my primary email address is at http://www.care2.com because I love the @animail.net domain.
