What email service do you use?

Well, i'm using Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail, and Spymac Mail.

What do you use?
I'm looking for some special emails...i mean @_______
I don't mind the capacity i just want something special...

Btw, any Koreans in this forum? Or anyone that knows how to read Korean here? I'm thinking of registering for this daum.net thing but i'm not sure if it's free/ have to pay/ etc...? Can someone help me find out and possibly help me register an account if it's a free service?
 
my main personal account is @mac.com, i have forwarders setup to that one to (ones that i can switch on and off) so that not many know my email - that way i can sign up to stuff without worring
 
I've just got a uni account, an ISP account and an old Hotmail account which is surprisingly still open. I always thought they only gave you thirty days of inactivity before shutting down the standard Hotmail accounts.
 
Gmail, Hotmail, and my Uni account. I still use Hotmail because certain friends and contacts keep sending mail to that address. I use my hotmail address to sign up for message boards, or any place I'm likely to get spam. So yep, it's a spam account.
 
University Email PDX
my own domain Email
Yahoo Email
SpyMac Email
Loopware Email

All of those are forwarded to my Gmail account (I think gmail has better rules then Apple mail) and then picked up by apple mail.
 
I have my own domain for my primary email address.
I also use my ISP address as a 'secondary primary' address.
Lastly, I have a Hotmail account when being forced to enter an email address when I don't want to (spam).
 
Cool...so far it's pretty much Gmail is the major one everyone's using...so about the korean thing, anyone from korea here? or anyone who knows how to speak korean? or any free web site translator? i desperately wanna get an email account from daum.net
 
GMail
c2i.net <- A spam hole (to reuse that current buzz word here at MR :D)
ii.uib.no (university account)
broadpark.no (ISP account)

And one private one... ;)
 
gmail . com --my main account i use for everything
sbcglobal . net --my isp account i never use except to register for things which require an isp account (dpreview, etc.)
motherboardcafe . com --my account at the forum i admin. i just use it for things related to the site :eek:
i used to have yahoo . fr and yahoo . co . jp accounts but i never used them so they've been idle for several months...

That's only the newer accounts, the old accounts just stay open period and also allow you access via a mail program for free and other things. As for mail i use

.mac
hotmail x 2
yahoo

i know altavista but babelfish?
whats the website?
 
my university account - not more than 5% of the time
.Mac - about 10% of the time
GMail - about 20% of the time
Spymac - the other 65% (though only through redirects of my @kwajo.com email, I'm not telling people I visit spymac, it's embarrassing. :eek: now if macrumors had email, there'd be something to be proud of :D )

why huh? what's wrong with Spymac?
 
I have a few addresses...

1. A Gmail account ( @gmail.com )
2. If you send mail to any of the following:

@clayj.com
@clayjohanson.com
@johansoncollection.org

The mail goes through my web host in Chicago, and is then relayed to my personal Exchange 2003 Server. I can access mail not only through my Exchange Server, but also via POP from my web host if my Exchange Server is unavailable for any reason (power outage, network down, etc.).

I used to also have an address @mailblocks.com before they went out of business.
 
I use my Gmail a lot of the time, and my @applesplash.com that I have from my site and hosting.. :) Works for me, all comes into and out of Mail. :D
