What’s your favorite internet email service and why?
Like most, I have a feeling mine is my favorite simply because I’ve been using it for a very long time and I’m just used to it.
Sort of like most of our choices of OS’s, we’re just used to it and don’t want to change.
Anyways, my favorite especially with the new user inference is Yahoo Mail. But I also use Gmail as well.
I started using Gmail awhile back because they gave me a 1 GB of storage which at the time was enormous. Now everyone is going in that direction.
I can’t really say I like the Gmail interface, but I realize that’s just a personal preference.
Anyways, to start the thread, what I’m really asking is not just personal preferences but also performance, features, reliability, spam filtering, virus scanning, etc.
What would you recommend to someone looking to sign up for a new account? And how many of you run your own email server at home like me? What do you run and what OS, spam software, virus scanning, etc.
