Wow, has Gmail been around that long? It seems only a couple of years ago they were giving out invites.

Anyway, I use Gmail because it has a lot of space, it's easy to search through conversations, and you have that built in chat feature too which can come in handy. Only a couple of times it's been unreliable, when a few of my mails ended up in the trash for no reason that I can understand.

For e mail I use gmail. It can't be beat when it comes to space, spam protection, and general features. The Google docs are especially helpful for managing things like timesheets online. However, I also use Yahoo, though mostly for entertainment purposes--playing games online etc. Hotmail I abandoned years ago due to spam.

I use Gmail and it's very convenient. But honestly, I'm starting to explore other options, and I may get away from web-based mail. Google is known to snoop on personal information and give the gov't info too...who knows who's reading my Gmail...

I primarily use email addresses on my own domain names, for example: my username here +geekboards.com is one of the addresses I use for GB. But I do have a gmail address. I use that for various email newsletters that I signup for. This way it keeps my work related addresses clear of those emails and they are all in the central place, in my gmail account, for when I want to read them.

Yahoo & Hotmail also seem to have good services as well.

THroughout my life I've used all three, but now I exclusively use gmail. This is because, no matter what I tried, my yahoo and hotmail accounts always filled with spam. Now I use gmail, don't worry about spam, and also have unlimited space! Gchat is also cool!
