Yahoo mail is absolutely terrible

Yahoo mail can suck my butt. My entire butt.
Its buggy as I frequently get a message saying it can't do something and that I should "refresh".
The search bar for email doesn't work.
Its spam blocker is a total piece of shit(In two years I've gotten over 6000 mortgage, dick pill, survey, and You've Won ____! spams and still counting)
It sucks.

Have you ever used gmail.con ? Had it for about a year it`s the tits.
Use it with Mozilla and don`t get shit spam, which is good because my
dick is fine and i have payed off my mortgage.
It may still be by invitation only, if so P. M. me and i`ll hook you up.

Gmail is the ownage. Been using it for a few months now, I favor it over hotmail.

Graffiti.net is also really good and simple to use. I didn't get spam until I started applying for scholarships off fastweb.com. I think half those places took my info for that purpose.

Other than that, graffiti has excellent spam control and never gives me any trouble. I don't know if this is the best you can get in free space, but I have 250 MB. I noticed that if you "delete" something, it goes to the trash and stays there forever. It never goes away and it doesn't count toward your available storage space. Plus, the name sounds cool.

All these complaints...are you guys using the beta version of yahoo. There no problems with that. They just trying to copy the layout of microsoft outlook. I hate the basic one. The little moving avatar which doesn't even look like me annoys me. I use yahoo for personal things so there not much spam.

Daxter, I can agree with you on that the bulk folder is seems to be full of mail.


One more thing while this topic is in view. Is it true that if you don't check your hotmail account for a number of days. They discard your account. Here I don't have access to hotmail. Apparently it full of virus. BS I know! So any online mail is denied. My cousins are really caught up in this.

I use Juno, and there is no Bulk folder, just email, all the time, you only get the spam that you always get, which is little commercial email's from Juno's sponsers.

Google Mail is incredible. It does filter out most spam, but in the last few days it's been clogging up my main inbox, too. However, grouped messages and labels and a clear layout more than makes up for it. And, unlike Hotmail and Yahoo! Mail, they don't destroy your life if you don't suck them off at least once every 30 days.

I love Gmail! It's the best around. I really don't have any problem with Yahoo, I think it works very well.

To those of you that have Gmail (Max, Havoc, others), what's you address?

Gmail = good, though I don't actually use my gmail account - I just can't be bothered telling people to change my email address. I use zworg, which used to be free but now I pay a small fee for more storage.

But as bad as yahoo is, it's nowhere near as bad as hotmail.

Which means that at various times I've had a gmail, yahoo, lycos (back in the day), 2 hotmail and 2 zworg email addresses. Plus one each from my high school and two universities. So that makes it 10 email addresses in the last decade. Phew!
