What email provider do you use? - Darth-Apple - June 1st, 2013
My primary email address is on Gmail, and I have my secondary email on hotmail. (I also have others that I never use. )
what email providers are you guys using?

I have an Optusnet one with my phone and a personal gmail. I also have a school email.

Gmail
Re: What email provider do you use? - simlink - June 10th, 2013
outlook (formerly hotmail) for me. I only originally got gmail because of my phone which runs Android. Some website stuff I do is also gmail but for actual personal email its always sent via outlook.

I used to have a hotmail account, but that was because my gmail account wasn't working with CSGf. I only recently stopped using it (back in April)

Oh nice. I never really stopped using my personal gmail that is for my phone... it is essentially mu junk one when I enter a contest, for example, to win groceries by filling a store survey out. My yahoo one is just for facebook and filters into my main hotmail account to folders anyways...
Re: What email provider do you use? - Darth-Apple - June 10th, 2013
My main account gets way too much email, and not much of it is stuff I really care about. 95% is website reply notifications, facebook notifications, etc...
Re: What email provider do you use? - simlink - June 10th, 2013
My simlinksimcity email is like that. but my personal one has a lot of sorting filters so emails from different sites go to different folders.
Re: What email provider do you use? - Darth-Apple - June 10th, 2013
Ah nice. I should try that myself. It would be a huge help for sure.
Re: What email provider do you use? - Acko - June 10th, 2013
Well, I don't actually use my email for normal stuff. Just for forum account activations and such.
Re: What email provider do you use? - Darth-Apple - June 10th, 2013
I've even heard of people ditching email entirely. It surprises me in a way, but then again facebook has already replaced it in many aspects.
Re: What email provider do you use? - Acko - June 10th, 2013
Yeah, email has been pretty much the standard for messaging on the internet. I don't think everybody is going to completely abandon it, but technologies like IRC are certainly better for say... emergencies, where you instantly need information.
Re: What email provider do you use? - Darth-Apple - June 10th, 2013
Speaking of IRC, everyone thought it would die too, and it's stronger than it's ever been. Just look at the freenode channel list...
Re: What email provider do you use? - Acko - June 10th, 2013
You have 400 posts
Re: What email provider do you use? - simlink - June 30th, 2013
I definitely won't be dropping email, especially with the field of work I'm entering into. Email is an essential form of communication.
Re: What email provider do you use? - Darth-Apple - June 30th, 2013
I think that forms of media such as facebook have only really replaced the forms of communication that are primarily social in nature. For professional purposes, I think email will always have an advantage.
Re: What email provider do you use? - simlink - June 30th, 2013
I'd agree with that, personal emails tend to be replaced with Facebook. Not in all cases, but in many yes.
Re: What email provider do you use? - wasi90lk - July 20th, 2013
I have email account on Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, AOL.
Out of these four, I tend to use Hotmail the most.
