    Hello,

    I guess most DPers have a Gmail ID. But do you use that as your Professional Email or Work Email or as Official Email?

    Or if you are not then do you use any Free Email Service Like Live, Hotmail or Yahoo as your Official Email.

    I Love to hear your reply :)

    I use pop3 email from a domain I own as my "professional email". I conduct business on here with GMail. Gotta love GMail!

    Actually you can take advantage of that... by using Google apps...

    Or from your current Gmail Account... Just add that email to ur Gmail account so that u can send emails from your gmail account as ... am doing like that... But I have 3 domains to consider for this... thats my problem... I hate to use multiple emails.......

    Good call conker on the net. I'm finding that my pop3 through Outlook is getting an increase of spam. I'll give it a shot too.

    I would not advise anyone to use Gmail as a professional email since it's a free service and you don't own the domain.

    we work for specific country wise client in that case we dont use our specific domainname email coz our domain IP address is from different country so we can prefer most probably GMail Account.
