5 Gmail accounts free - 09/04/04 12:29 PM
I got one off of a friend and never used it till just now. I sent myself an email to test how fast it would get one. Well, got it pretty fast then noticed that I can give out 5 gmail accounts.<br><br>So, who wants one? I'll need name and email. Just gave one away....down to 5. I thought it was 7, but it was 6 initially.<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by JohnR on 09/04/04 03:31 PM (server time).</EM></FONT></P>

Not really interested in a GMail account, but would be interesting to here any comments or feedback on how well it works from any GMail users.<br><br>[color:blue]All your sock puppets are belong to us</font color=blue>

I haven't given out my gmail address yet. But that test message was fast. Seems to be decent.<br><br>I'll probably use it for sites that ask for them, like Amazon, B&Hphotovideo, etc.<br><br>

What I'm wondering is will it automatically delete email after a certain period of time?<br><br>If not, then it's definately nice to have a place to back up email that you want to keep.<br><br>

It is my understanding that it never deletes email<br><br>

thanks!<br><br>did you manage to import your address book somehow? gMail accepts .csv, but Address Book exports as .vcf.<br><br>

this is supposed to do it but I haven't tried it yet.<br>AddressBookToCSV <br>Product Description:<br>AddressBookToCSV is a one trick pony whose purpose in (artificial) life is to export contacts from the Mac OS X Address Book to a form Gmail can import. That form is called CSV, comma separated value format.<br><br>

By the way, Firefox screams with Gmail. <br><br>Safari doesn't close the message after you click send, or at least it didnt for me. <br><br>

0 left for now! <br><br>For those who got one, keep an eye out...they probably will give you some to give out. I didn't do anything special..in fact had sent and received 0 emails through it and still got some! hehe<br><br>
