I just got a Gmail account

[Great Rumbler]

Awesome.

[Dark Lord Neo]

They don't appear to be adding ads into e-mails yet.

Yahoo is plenty good, I'll never need 100MB for email... :)

Yes, they increased it from around 3-5MB because of GMail. But the important thing is that they did it and now it's huge.

[OB1]

Yeah I really don't need any more space than what yahoo offers. Yet.

Sad how hotmail is still at the same size.

[A Black Falcon]

Seeing how I'm using 4% of that 100MB, I don't think I'll use it up anytime soon...

[Great Rumbler]

Hotmail has 2MB of space, not that it really matters to me since I rarely get any email that I care to read.

[The Former DMiller]

I'm already at 3% of Gmail's limit, but that's because I send and receive a lot of attachments for work.

To late to sign up?

[Dark Lord Neo]

To late to sign up?

You can't just sign up, you have to either get an invite from google, or from somone that google has allowed to send invites.

[The Former DMiller]

If some of you want a Gmail account let me know. I still have 2 invites that I haven't used. All I need is your email address.

100MB? Jesus criminy. Who could ever use, or need, that much space? Talk about overkill...

I'll take one, Derek :D

My IGN account has like 2 or 3 MB, it's not much... it's 78% and I don't get much of any mail there. It's nice to have a big mailbox so you don't worry about missing something if it happens to fill when you go away for a while or something. 100MB is overkill and GMail's 1GB is ridiculous, but it's nice security. Though 1GB is pretty stupid. I think they only chose it to be way more than the competition.

I know Google is super popular and all but... I like Yahoo more, sorry Google... :)

[EdenMaster]

W00T! Thanks man, you rock!

DMiller, send that last one my way if you don't mind. I'd like to try this.

Wow, yahoo DID up the space to 100MB! Great, now I can send and recieve some real world sized attachments. I didn't notice because I only check my mail once in like, a month. That's what happens when it's ALL spam almost each time I check!

Anyway, I sure hope GMail adds pop3 support, for FREE. Yahoo AND Hotmail both offered that a long time ago, but they dropped it in favor of spamming us. Don't get me wrong, I don't DEMAND it from them, but it would sure be nice.

[Fittisize]

100MB is far, far too much for me, especially since I delete every single one of my e-mails moments after I get them (the vast majority of them are from TC notifying me of a post in a thread that I'm subscribed in, and chain letters and 300+ page surveys from all the morons on my MSN list).

[Dark Jaguar]

Honestly, I hate the whole idea of been e-mail alterted to posts in message boards. I mean, how useful could that possibly be? It was always an annoyance, and whenever a message board has that on by default, I immediatly find a way to turn it off. I've actually not joined some message boards because they have it on and it's impossible TO turn it off. That's why I went into this board's sign up default options and made all e-mail alerts like that disabled by default.

[Dark Lord Neo]

I'll turn them back on just to piss of DJ

[alien space marine]

If it werent for MB alerts I wouldnt have anything coming into my email adress :(

[A Black Falcon]

Yeah, MB alerts seem completely pointless...

[Dark Jaguar]

:D

Yeah, they are pointless, but if some people actually need them, they can always turn it on for their own personal settings.
