Best Email Service

[The Conqueror]

Which is the BEST Email Service, according to you ?

For me, GMail coz it is fast, NO ADS (small text ads doesnt matter) :D


RULE : State the reason after you vote

[nvidia]

I use gmail now. I dont like yahoo anymore. Yahoo has too many ads and that new mail interface sucks big time!

[prasad_den]

GMail of course..!

[debsuvra]

Always GMail. But I use the thunderbird client in linux and xp. Also use Apple Mail in Mac OS X Leopard. So Choosing a provider does not make so much difference.:D

[cool_techie_tvm]

Another gmail user :)

[hailgautam]

the poll is in itself evident as more than 90% of the people favor gmail.

[Choto Cheeta]

Yahoo

Because of option to turn off the Spam filter !!!

[ravi_9793]

mine vote to windows live..
Ater it upgrade to windows live hotmail..it is really 200% more better.

[utsav]

I use gmail hotmail yahoomail zapakmail indiatimesmail rediffmail lol which 1 to choose :D

[satyamy]

Yahoo Works Best for me
bcoz of Instant Notification from its Messenger

other like live, rediff, gmail are ok

and about Zapak (only good for gaming)

[purujitb]

gmail lacks the tabs inside the browser window(which yahoo have)...but i still love gmail:D

Gmail if using POP, Yahoo mail for its webmail interface. Gmail web version doesn't works fine on my computer.

Install/Enable Java
Or use the basic HTML version

Install/Enable Java
Or use the basic HTML version


I have enabled Java as well as javascript but even then Gmail doesn't work well, though new versions of yahoo, rediff, hotmail work fine. Sometimes I have to retry many times to login . And hardly I have been able to log out of it in one try

[The Conqueror]

Now, GMail seems to be popular coz of its speed, simple interface and pop3 etc


Those who have NOT voted please vote.

[Garbage]

GMail of course !!

But don't know, why it's still in Beta ??

[rohan_shenoy]

The problem with gmail is that all Orkut friends can send you their forward and junk mail. So I prefer using www.bluebottle.com for serious work and gmail or rediff for websites which seem to collect email address compulsorily or when it sounds like a scam!

[The Conqueror]

I use 10 minute mail for registering @ websites.. so i dont get any Spam :D

[ray|raven]

GMail anyday,
Although AOL mail is starting to look good.

Open your mail....and click on attachment file.

[Champs]

Gmail is the best

[zyberboy]

Its yahoo for me
becoz allows .exe attachment, has full options in basic html interface, supports html signatures,better upload speed for me (Bsnl 500), Ads not a problem for me(using ff+ad block)....for these yahoo is better for me.

gmail lacks these^^^ options

[ThinkFree]

Yahoo gives disposable email addresses which gmail doesn't but overall gmail with its older version is best. New version is slower

[max_demon]

Gmail 2.0 has a slower startup , but once you enter in gmail 2.0 , it is lightining fast .

Gmail 1.0 has faster startup

Moreover imap support .

Gmail released their gresemonkey API too for developers

Gmail display ads , only text , but some firefox extention block that too (will not mention here , i have not disabled option of ads on in gmail )

Gmail is veryyyyy simple

even my 3 year old daughter can use

[hullap]

+1 to gmail

[vaibhavtek]

+1 gmail

[Tapomay]

i use hotmail, gmail and rediffmail; but rediffmail is my favourite. never face any problem with rediffmail with my slow connection.

[vaibhavtek]

belive it or not gmail has become the best service manily due to "chatting inside gmail" and "seeting Outlook Express for free"....!! http://gigasmilies.googlepages.com/32a.gif

[RaghuKL]

+1 Gmail...

[abhilashkm]

the apple mail... tho it ain't free...

Yahoo, Rediff and many other email services provide integrated chat in webmail interface. The interface of yahoo is more like a desktop mail client.

[baccilus]

I vote for gmail too because I like it's interface. One minor irritant I have with it is that it takes a long time to upload files. Others seem to do it faster. Don know if it's only me who feels this way.

[faraaz]

Email Conversations, Labels, POP3 access, support for extensions, integration with G!Talk, Google Docs AND 20 MB attachments to other gmail ids?? In my opinion...autowin for Gmail!

[The Conqueror]

Mods PLEASE delete post number 41,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51 and 52 of this thread as they r OFFTOPIC and useless discussion

[gagandeep]

I am wondering that who'll be the first one to vote for Zapak Mail as the best e-mail service.

[The Conqueror]

^^ State the reason y u voted for a particular service also

[praka123]

i have an http://aol.in account and i feel its gr8! :)

[Rockstar11]

I use rediffmail Windows LIVE Mail yahoomail and abhi abhi aol.in pe register kiya :p

Rediffmail mein E-Mail Search option nice hai :)
Windows LIVE Mail best hai mere liye :D
Yahoomail pe emails kam aate hai ads jyada ati hai :mad:

Refer to the Post #16 on the first page. I had voted already before.

[mukeshkumar]

gmail and lycos

Ok, must have missed it.

Nothing beats GMail :D

[amitshahc]

you can use '+' sign in gmail for using your email as disposable email. and can track the spam, and then filter it.
e.g. amitshahc+office@gmail.com
see more about it (http://toolnext.com/2008/04/gmail-how-to-use-plus-sign-for.html)

Yahoo gives disposable email addresses which gmail doesn't but overall gmail with its older version is best. New version is slower

[legolas]

I also find the new version of gmail slower.

[ThinkFree]

e.g. amitshahc+office@gmail.com

But how would you send mail from that disposable address? As far as I know, its not possible with Gmail but possible with Yahoo

[sachin_kothari]

Gmail, although yahoo's new interface has improved a lot and is more stable now.

[legolas]

Also, in gmail, I wish there was this option. In directing mails to particular labels and skipping inbox, I wanted the mails to be not shown as New. Instead as read (if I desire for certain labels). Hope I explained clearly.

[The Conqueror]

you can select the option to mark all and then u can click on the option Mark as READ

[legolas]

:) I guess every1 knows it. That is why I wanted to automate it. Because, I subscribe to certain newsletters, dictionary word of the days and I dont find time to read them and I find it irritating to see "new mail notification of these numbers on the side of the labels". So, I would prefer this option.

[amitshahc]

But how would you send mail from that disposable address? As far as I know, its not possible with Gmail but possible with Yahoo

yes buddy you are right. that's why i also prefer for yahoo for disposable email service. gmail trick is only for tracking and filtering the mails.

[virus_killer]

I am with Windows Live Mail, It has got many new features, specially that skydrive one.

[pushkar]

I like Yahoo Mail as it is fast and simple.

[JEskandari]

hotmail only work with windows live mail ,but Gmail work with any client you like.
and if i'm not wrong free yahoo mail won't support pop3 unless you use yahoo.co.uk

[desiibond]

Yahoo mail is my pick. been using it for a decade and just can't move to gmail or any other mail service.

[anand1]

i have been using all of these email services but the most which i like is Yahoo. this is because it is fast and has never caused any of the problem be it i use for official mail as well as personal use.

[praka123]

^How contradictory! :rolleyes:

[Vyasram]

i had my first email account at gmail and i'm sticking with it. i dont like changing my address.

[karmanya]

Anyone tried AOL mail?
Kind of a flashier version of Yahoo, and yes it does suck pretty badly

[hullap]

IMHO
Gmail Is TEH:p best email service

[Sunny1211993]

I don't use email.mujhe baharatiya daak sevaon par pura bharosa hai:D

[Pathik]

Gmail ftw!

[legolas]

Yes, of course Gmail... but I wonder when they will improve this Gtalk!! :-|

[hahahari]

Rediff here. No clutter.

[techtronic]

Gmail, because interface looks cool.

[go4saket]

Gmail ofcourse. It was the first to offer bulk space when all other service were offering a mere of 10-20 MB. It has the simplest and the fastest interface. Its mail forwarding feature helps you maintain multiple email account with one account.

[remrow]

I like Yahoo and gmail both .

I like yahoo for its interface and its email filter. The filters really save your time to delete the spams.

And gmail for its design(i like gmail type of designs than eye candies) , text ads, and many more .

[ax3]

yahoo is good 4 me ......

no privacy from gmail ...... so a BIG no no .......

[max_demon]

Google Apps FTW

http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=90955

[ajaybc]

Gmail spam filter is the best

[cooldudie3]

No not exactly. The mail service with the less spam is .mac
But I don't use it. I use Gmail. It is fast, easy to use and there are no ads. But it is a little bare bones kind. There are also no themes

[aminsagar123]

+1 for gmail

[lywyre]

GMail since the day I got one. Was using Yahoo earlier, also hotmail. Now only GMail and occassionally Yahoo to clear up my inbox (all the mail would only be from Yahoo! Group).
Spam management is better than any other mail service. Rarely does a spam come to my Inbox and I have lost no genuine mail to spam.

[2kewl]

Gmail all the way...the best and the lightest!

[goobimama]

Reminds me of a blog post I made recently :D

Moving from the best email service ever, to the one that royally kicks its ass! (http://goobimama.blogspot.com/2008/07/moving-from-best-email-service-ever-to.html)
After what has been four years of awesome email service from Gmail, I am finally making the switch. What oh what might you ask is better than Gmail? Say hello to MobileMe.

[narangz]

Reminds me of a blog post I made recently :D

Hehe, I was wondering why there's no post about Mobile Me from goobimama. :D

[goobimama]

Heheh. I guess I will never give up my spamming habits.

[Pathik]

Me neither. :D

GMail FTW!!!!!!

[tgpraveen]

[narangz]

Yeah! Gmail!!! :)

[CadCrazy]

Gmail My Choice. Now lock this thread :D

[Bapi_xx2]

Features in Gmail is ahead of any mail service present today. It is fast, easy and don't eat my brandwidth with IMG adds. MOst what i love is it's chatting.

[ThinkFree]

The only thing that I miss in gmail is absence of folders.
One plus point in terms of security is the recently introduced feature that allows you to see the details of your last login( including type of login , time and date of login and IP address. Find more here: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?ctx=gmail&answer=45938 ). You can logout of gmail from one computer(say home computer, if you forgot to do so or due to security reason) from any other computer in the world connected to the net.

[mastermunj]

Gmail FTW!!!

[k6153r]

Gmail

[goobimama]

I wonder though, does anyone really use Zapak mail and all those other things that they advertise on TV?

[nvidia]

^^I dont think so.
Alexa says here in India, Zapak is 53rd.
Other stuff which are advertised like BigAdda and Ibibo(i dont know if they have a decent mail service) are not in the top 100..

[nikhil]

I've used many email services but i have switched over to Gmail since I found it more efficient than others. Plus, I am not being spammed in Gmail at all. Gmail has a cleaner and neater interface. The only thing I guess i miss in creating my own floders in my Gmail account.

[Ranger]

Gmail. Simplicity is d best. Its a sophisticated email system with simple interface.

[goodshepherd]

Earlier, i was a fan of Gmail. but now, i think windows live is miles ahead, both in looks and performance. the voice chat has great clarity. appearance is really appealing.

[ThinkFree]

^^You forgot to mention flash ads where live is thousands of miles ahead of gmail

[ax3]

gmail is cool bt mail size cant b seen ...... i think thats 1 -ve part .......

[cooldudie3]

GMAIL rocks though I am getting a lot of spam not filtered and going straight to my inbox :(

[viruses]

gmail and what is this zapak mail-lol

^Zapak mail has a very good advertising but to my surprise everyone hates it LOL
Google Apps are d best.

[The Conqueror]

GMail is the fastest,simplest and has the most features.:D

[shashank4u]

Simplicity of gmail makes it a winner.

[rohan_shenoy]

I have used premium services such as Bluebottle Premium and also freemail services like Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, Bluebottle(freemail).

But I am most satisfied with my my own mail hosting account. I can make as many as aliases and get whatever@mydomain.com. Moreover no footer or ads in emails which makes it suitable for formal use too.

[ThinkFree]

. Moreover no footer or ads in emails which makes it suitable for formal use too.

Gmail doesn't insert any ad either.

[The Conqueror]

Yes GMail doesnt, Also with google apps you can create s many as aliases and get whatever@mydomain.com
Only some text ads in corner of your inbox but u can prevent them using adblocks :cool:
So GMail ROCKS!
