No this isn't spam. Also, gmail is just easier to use overall. It can even be used as a instant messaging thing. You just have to refresh a lot. Also, the filters that you can create are great with gmail. |

gmail = 1000mb, never delete anything. That is why it owns all e-mail providers. |

hotmail will soon be getting 250mb of space to try and keep up. I dont think that it will come close to matching google though. |

Gmail isnt as good as peeps make it up to be.. I mean who in the right mind would need 1000mb's of memory? And I mean its just like any other email system.. Compose, Inbox, Contacts.. Nothin new or special, maybe if they gave you free stuff it would be cool. |

Yahoo: Less Space Puts their link in all your emails Ugly flash banners Gmail: 1000MB space Filters and Labels (I LOVE this feature hehe) Archiving Less intrusive ads
If you're like me you use email A LOT and get a lot of images which take up a lot of space. During school I do a lot of sending of project files and what not to teachers and they send me things back that have to do with the class, etc. And while yes it has compose, inbox, etc it also has the filters which is what I find really makes it better. I didn't even know about that feature till I got my account but I already love it and make good use of it ![]() Sure yahoo works fine, but if you use email a lot then gmail definitely has some advantages for organization tools. |

also... when Gmail comes out in about a month from Beta. the MB will probly shorten becuse its servers wont handle it. Thats why Hotmail has 2MB becuse they have too amny users running on the server. |

Tis a possibility, but we will see. Take advantage of what is offered now, no point not because of what might happen. |

I think they might do something like that. Keep it invite or only have sign ups available temporarily. That way they can monitor how much space they give out and bandwidth and all that. |
