GMail, Hotmail, Yahoo or Rediffmail "which is better

    I personally think Gmail is the best among the webmails providers. Second is Yahoo my old favourite....

    With 2GB storage and a very fast loading interface making it is the biggest and fastest email provider. It also supports POP3 free.

    Gmail is 100% better and now after rich text formatting capability added it is far far better than its counterparts.

    No spam mails..

    Only one downside of Gmail, it has no virus filter feature.

    There are several flaws I found in Hotmail and Yahoo.

    Hotmail: It gives away your email address making your email vulnerable to spams. It doesn't support POP3. It has the least mail storage of all three. It is fairly slow to open. I didnt quite like beta version of hotmail as you cant empty junk mail at one go.

    Yahoo: It has way too much advertisements in the interface. POP3 is supported if you got the money. I didnt quite like beta version of yahoo.
    in yahoo i get like more than 100 spam mail a day


    What do u all think?

    Hotmail has also 2gb of storage as yahoo, and is one of the best email services along with gmail, then it comes yahoo the last one.

    I have three different mail accounts in Yahoo, Gmail, and Rediff. But Gmail tops the list. It's way simpler and easier to use.

    In gmail all the emails are stored in the inbox only, if there was a way to create folders and store emails in folders like i do in yahoo, then i would choose gmail over it! I have like 20+ folders like, "DP emails", "Sales emails", "Friends emails" etc. That helps me to find emails quickly, also the inbox looks more clean! So i choose yahoo! i don't use hotmail so can't say much about it!:)

    I use paid version of yahoo mail, so if anything goes wrong, i can expect better support, with gmail's free version if something goes wrong then it's over! also yahoo paid version has email back up features along with lot's of other features!:)

    Yahoo and Gmail. Gmail's strong point is that it groups emails from same recepient together in one email pack, very neat. Yahoo's strong point is what was mentioned again above (creating folders)

    Yahoo is better, because you cant open mails in various tabs on google.
