* If Anyone want Gmail Then PM Me. I Have Many Invites Left.

It seems that many of you have chosen Gmail. It is very interesting because at first I thought most of the people would choose Yahoo Mail. Why is Gmail so attractive to you? Is the speed of the Gmail faster than Yahoo Mail and Hotmail?
I would like to have an account if anyone of you have spare invitations left.

Brian, PM me your first name, last name and email address and i can send you an invite

i think the fact that it was associated with google (the best search engine ) made it popular and thats why lots of people wanted one.

plus once you actually try the service, you'll come to realise how great it is.

oh yea, and the space, how can u forget the space, a whole gigabyte of storage, no other free email service gives you that much space.

and POP access

This is an old topic you can find it in this forum!!
by the way i have to say again.
I has hotmail 250mb ,yahoo 250 mb and gmail 1gb.
and gmail is not support in my language I can't read my mail with my language.
so I has only 2 mail in gmail inbox and use it for save my data/file.
and still use hotmail+yahoo. But I prefer hotmail cause I can use it with msn messenger.

I like yahoo and gmail. They have a simple web design... and it is really simple to navigate you e-mail account. Do not know why but I prefer yahoo's e-mail service most.

I've used all three of them. I'm now still useing two of them. Yahoo is the best. I've been using Hotmail for years. I loved its colours. However, I found that it became slower and slower, and the space is not big enough. Then I tried yahoo and gmail. Personally I think yahoo is better. It's fast and stable. Gmail is a bit inconvenient to log in when I travelling to Asia. But Gmail is good for indibviduals to design his own style. I like this part!

I have tried Gmail recently, and I think it's user-friendly and contain a lot of useful function. In addition, the connection speed to the server to Gmail is obviously faster than to Yahoo Mail! I would like to ask that any of you have sucessfully changed your Gamil account into your country's language, for example Chinese, Spanish, France, etc?

Do any of you realize that Gmail does have more compacity to be watched by the gov than apparently any other email client out there? I read it in my local paper and then read about it in Time magazine. I guess that is why I don't like it.

Hotmail is good, but the interface is too overwhelming and cluttered. Yahoo is more simple and my style yet it's webmail. Gmail has cool pop3 features which is good, it's fast, clean interface. But the gmail spam filter could use a little work - you have to create filters. why not just select the message and say block sender or move straight to trash. Btw, you can only make filters on messages in all mail and inbox. They should make the spam easier to manage in gmail.

4. Why Is Gmail Still Beta? - what's the policy behind keeping a beta version (7)

   I've been using GMail for almost three years, probably got it a few months after it was
   launched. I like it very much, the most out of all webmail systems I've tried. When I started
   using it I was thinking "OK, that beta will be dropped soon", then I got used to seeing the logo
   that way. Now I wonder what's the reason to keep the "beta" indication? Is it some sort of
   disclaimer ("if it loses your mail it's your problem") or just that people got used to it and
   removing it would mean losing users ("mmm it may soon become a paid service..", I know that does...

9. Which Antivirus Gmail Is Using? - A person found out it is Sophos! (12)

   Hey everyone! While surfing the internet I found out an intersing report..which claims that Gmail
   is using Sophos as the antivirus. This guy used a free service in which he sent out some malwares
   and that service gave out the report of major antiviruses...like which one detected it and which
   didnt. And then he compared it with Gmail....and the results show that Gmail found out exactly the
   same malwares which sophos found...so that means there algorithm is same...so it has to be sophos!

12. An Ode To Gmail. - A small text about how GMail is awesome. (5)

    Until the savior came. Google decided to do the smart move and make a revolutionary kind of e-mail.
    Starting off with their beta program that made use of invitations, many people (including me) found
    the truly amazing experience and the easy to use interface of GMail it's key points to lead the

    account. Now if you just keep sending the invites to yourself, you'll end up with lots more
    gmail accounts, isn't it? (I've tried it, you CAN create multiple gmail accounts by inviting
    yourself) And that means more storage space if you use each account to store 2 GB of things right?
    Could it possibly rival other premium data backup services online, most importantly...

17. Microsoft Says Gmail Is A Virus - (65)

    software Windows Live OneCare. Many people are reporting that every time they open Gmail, a warning
    is displayed telling the user they are infected with "BAT/BWG.A". Now, either Gmail is a virus, or
    Microsoft is generating false positives. Some affected by this "virus" say other anti-virus products
    do not pick up the infection — to me, this is a bit suspicious. So who should be responsible for
    fixing the problem? Either Google can wait for Microsoft to update their virus def...
