I think I remember someone on here talking about having Gmail. Correct, or did I imagine that? Anyway, if anyone does have it, do you like it? Any comments......

I have one - the initial Beta version from an employee friend at Google.
It has a ton of storage capacity (2700 MBs) and has the standard email functionality (with a very good spam filter). In addition, it automatically uses VoIP for computer-computer voice chat - as clear as your cell phone and - FREE.
I'd say the only drawback to date is all the adds that appear based on it's presumptions of your topics - what I mean is that you may be typing one thing and Google presumes it means another - you know what happens when you presume - you make an ass of u and me.
I've got like 90 or so invitations left. PM if you're interested...The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.

Can it be used with Outlook? My ISP has port 25 blocking, so I can only use their SMTP servers. using gmail would be considered 3rd party email, so it probably won't work. I'm an Outlook nut, can't help it!
In fact, for my own website I'm trying to set up some SMTP delay settings hoping it will bypass my ISP's servers as I hate fetching mail via a web based email client.

I'm not familiar with Thunderbird. I dislike web-based email clients though.Originally posted by PartialUse thunderbird. That is weird about your ISP. I say give it a whirl and see what happens. PM me for an invite, it's worth checking out.
Actually, Partial, quite a few ISP's have port 25 blocking in place as an attempt to combat spam. I need to call SBC, er AT&T now, and see if I can have that removed. Great.... I get to talk to Bharadwaj who says his name is Brian....
