    How if free email service provider stop their free services ?
    What will happen ?
    My paypal id, many important Acc. and data are coupled with the free email.
    If they stop free service, it will be the largest disaster in internet history .
    How do you think of it ?
    Even they don't stop their service, once their services are down for a day or two, it will cause large lose for many people.

    If you serious on your business, never rely 100% on free services.

    Most of us will have at least one paid email account and forgo the luxury of multiple free email accounts ;)

    i've thought of this before.
    i remember that day when hotmail had a thing that said.

    You have no inbox.

    I was devastated - almost crying.
    I can't imagine.
    Makes me think.

    But I have had an email account from hotmail for YEARS. almost 10 years....never failed me once.

    You can change your contact email in PayPal and your PayPal mail id is used only for login. They won't ask you to use your mail id for any reason.
    So don't worry :)

    None of the big companies will ever stop because they are making big money from ad revenue...

    They aren't really just giving you so many features for 'free'

    It's because THEY WANT YOU to come to their site, login, see ads, etc

    Look at the multi-billion dollar adsense program for some proof....

    I doubt they will stop, but if they do I guess I will pay for the service.

    they'll never stop it, because these free email providers are making so much money for displaying ads for the free user.
