Alternatives of GMAIL???

U

Hi to one and all

As the topic suggests which is the good and best alternative for google's gmail.

Ps:exclude yahoo mail from the list.

^I use gmail since 2006 & I like it very much though I have yahoomail & rediffmail account but I majorly use gmail...

alternatives are hotmail,rediff etc

M

well Gmail is undisputed King and I don't think there is something better than that

R

I think Gmail is really fast than others but still Rediff Mail will be a good alternative.

G

hotmail is good

Gmail is the best one as per my view.
But if you really want alternative of Gmail then Go with hotmail.
1)Because they provide 25GB of online storage for all your data i.e skydrive.(including software,movie etc).
2)you can also use your hotmail id in microsoft login as well.

Hotmail, Yahoomail, Gmail

I don't know why you are shifting from them.

You can get a personalised e-mail too. I forgot the link but it's a paid one. I would however stick to one of the three above.

Alternatives to GMail.... hmmm....
Are there? :???:

probably nobody can be able to recall any alternative for gmail except its old counterparts viz., rediff, yahoo etc.
coz of sheer gmail dominance

You can get a personalised e-mail too. I forgot the link but it's a paid one. I would however stick to one of the three above.

If you mean from Google, Google Apps is not paid.

Apart from Hotmail, rediff-mail, yahoo, I would suggest you to try shortmail service.

This all boils down to one thing .... How You Like to use your mail ID, How basically you would like to manage it.

For example , if you are sticky on using Mail Clients to get read and reply to mails then you need to choose you mail id with a provider that will give you every possible ways to use it on your Mail Clients.

From Folders sync support to calendar support etc ( to name a few )

Also many people use multiple computers and may like to have their mail come in automatically in each computer in a very organized manner.

Gmail does tops up the list for all this, since it still uses IMAP to sync.

So, WebDev and other POP may not be supported by your mail clients, so choosing the best ID for your particular use depends on yourself.

As far as the service quality provided by this FREE email providers are mostly similar and good.

Hotmail is very good since it integrates with MS Office ( read skydrive ) and also is now very fast to use.

Gmail is the king but alternatives are hotmail,yahoomail. And if you need fast and easy registration for disposable emails try gmx.com

peace out ;-D

If you like Gmail and want all of its features for your Yahoo Mails, Simply import Yahoo Mails in Gmail.

1. You get all your mails in Gmail
2. When you reply to any of the mails sent on yahoo ID , your Yahoo ID will be in the FROM section. Alternatively, you can also choose Gmail ID if you want. Its fully configurable.

Currently, I am using Gmail as primary ID and configured yahoo and my office mails in Gmail too..so i just have to login to Gmail and can read/reply to any mails from any ID.

Here are Top 5 alternatives of Gmail.

I think the another best alternatives are,
- Hotmail
- Rediff account
- Yandex mail
- Hushmail
- Thunderbird
- Mictosoft outlook
- Opera mail
- Zoho mail

Have you guys tried Microsoft's "www.outlook.com", I cannot comment on betterness, but Interface is really different unique and not very fancy. Someday when i will be free i will give my time to interact with this new email service. I liked the simplicity..check that out guys.

Outlook is far better than gmail. Much more faster, simple and spam free.

There's a feature in RediffMail known as "read receipt", it notifies you with an email when the mail you sent is read. Its a very helpful feature when you send complaints and request to Support Section of Companies.

I dont seem to find it in Google Mail Labs, any idea anybody?
