web based email - what is the best

yahoo mail beta looks/works like a mail application

 

Gmail's performance has been poor in recent months. There are limits on attachments, and I've had problems sending small attachments as well. Gmail Drive is a nice app: http://www.viksoe.dk/code/gmail.htm

 

So, here is the plan so far.

One dedicated PC (laptop when traveling)
for trading.

One PC for drifting around the web.

Music & video /photos on another PC, different location in the house.

Mail courtesy of Gmail.

Is my new new setup?

I have an email address that I want to keep. Can I use this present address on gmail?

 

That's my setup, but I have a half-dozen systems. I agree that using the web-interface instead of outlook is the best-bet. I have five gmail accounts and use some of my accounts for external storage. Only a gig, but it's free.

 

I thought that I read the capacity is 2 gig per account

 

You're correct, upgraded long ago to 2gig+.

 

My email address is .com via register.com

Can Gmail work through this address in the same manner as OE and Thunderbird

 

yes

 

Gmail is as secure as any web-based email can be. Ads along the right side of messages are generated based on the message content.
