Smart move by Google. I am surprised they didn’t do it earlier. They already hold a huge portion of the e-mail market and by making it easy for users to switch over contacts, that share will just keep growing.

I have been a Yahoo! Mail Plus subscriber since 2002. Although it has not always been smooth sailing with this premium service, I would not consider switching webmail services to any others I have experienced in addition to what I use now.

I tried, I really did try to get on the GMail wagon and learn to love it, but it was a no go.

I also doubt, though note I will not be attempting this, that with Yahoo! Mail’s unlimited storage and my archive of mail since 2002, it would be a fat chance that 1. Google would be successful in pulling all the correct folder and meta data and provide it with easy accessibility, 2. Google will provide me with unlimited storage and support my mailbox size without a premium subscription on there end.

I have found other 3rd party webmail applications are even more appealing than G-Mail. I tried, and as much as I love Google, no E-Mail Gooogling for me. I believe it to be hype and a failed product.

Hi everyone. I agree how great gmail is. What i am waiting for with baited breath is the ability to use html code or a graphic as our signature. And also stationary. Then gmail will be the ultimate.

In some ways it can be seen by some as “scary” but Google gets so many things RIGHT (as opposed to the “M” bunch).

Why use anything but Gmail…except as throwaways?

I’ve been using Gmail for five years without one problem and no noticeable down time nor login as mentioned above. I use it as my main email contact for my art business purposes; perfect. Unlike James I have nothing to hide so labels work great for me as does the mass storage and comprehensive search features.

@Lane: You get what you pay for.

I’ve been using Gmail for several years, and I’ve even set up an email domain for my sons’ private school. It’s not hard at all.

Personally, I have no problem with it at all, and I encourage people I know to shift to it (instead of a couple other “well known” webmail sites).

Gmail is just either ignorant or stubborn sometimes, they say that there’s no need to use folders b ecause they provide labels.
I wonder what I should do if I need to hide some mails in the main inbox. Until I can freely move around emails, I won’t be bothered using gmail.

Funny, as I was posting the question on Twitter asking if anyone else was having trouble getting into their Gmail account, Gerald Weber posted the link to this page.
