Gmail or other

Post by Wickedways »

Anyone have a gmail invite left? or know of a decent email service other than msn hotmail. I have been using hotmail for the past year and I have become very upset with their service. For me, It seems to be down a lot lately. All day yesterday I was unable to send or recieve mail.

I only need 10mb of space. And I would like a service that at least has a basic spam filter.

Thanks,

You can try http://www.mail.com if you can't get gmail.

DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT use mail.com. I'm using it right now and I wished I had never started there. The popups are ridiculous and there are fucking advertisements whenever you want to look at your email. Not to mention it's slow as hell and the website is down once per week.

ahh....I have Spystopper (http://www.itcompany.com/spystop.htm) so I never see the pop-ups or ads.

Sure, Menlaan, I'll take one. :)

I haven't gotten any new GMail invites in the past month, kinda disappointing as I got around 30 during the first few months.

Gmail is working great for me. I have a few invites left as well.

As for Hotmail, my only complaint is that they seem to make zero effort to block spam mail (but hell it's free, so can you really complain?). I haven't had any problems with the servers being down... I've been using hotmail for years, and other than gmail, have no need, or reason to find a different service.
