I dont know why more people dont use Gmail. Loads of free
space... 2+ Gigs, amazing organization and search functions,
nifty and organized email structure turns back and forth
emails into 1 file in the system where you can see it almost
like a chat dialog and expand it all, very neat and works
very well. Larger sending limit than any other free client.


The Anti-Spam is quite good and you get all sorts of other
free functions and freebies with it. Gmail is the best once
I have ever used.

Probly because you need to be invited. Its not like you can
just go and sign up.

using gmail from outlook express... strange/silly thing to
do.

whatever you do, stay away from outlook and outlook express.
they're both awful and very insecure.

i myself haven't used an email client since gmail was
released. thunderbird is good, or so i hear.

i'd just reccomend using gmail from gmail.com. i don't see
why anyone would bother downloading their mail from it. the
interface is beautiful and very flexible.

I use Thunderbird. Works smoothly, really good spam
filtering, doesn't have Outlook's infectability.

labelling and archiving..

outlook's just as bad and insecure.

outlook is the fucking reason why there are so many fucking
email viruses and worms, and why they become so rampant as
to reach the news headlines.

stay away from it.

mozilla thunderbird does it for me. can be extended with
mozilla addons as well. gmail is nice too, but i miss the
ability to organize mail into folders. maybe it will come in
the future..

I use Opera for browsing, email and newsfeeds. Can also be
used for IRC. Outlook is obsolete and hazardous

Why is it when someone asks a question about "how do i do
this" or "what is the best example of that" there's always a
dozen or so people who just reply with "why do you want
that? you should do this instead of what you want, i know
what is best for you". Just answer the fecking question.

Q: "How can I do this with Windows?"
A: "Use Linux"
