    I only use Hotmail.
    I haven't ever used Yahoo or Gmail, but as much as I've heard, they're not nearly as a good as Hotmail.

  • Always had hotmail, from the first time i got onto the internet, my gmail account is just for spam type sites or for games. Hotmail is for the important stuff like MSN and w/e else, xbox live etc.

    Many years ago, when we stopped using AOL/dial up, I started using Yahoo mail (and messenger, too). To this day, it's still the only one I've used, and Yahoo is my main IM client, too.

    I used to use hotmail for my emailing needs, but I've switched to GMX now: it's far superior. Still use my hotmail address for WLM though, so it hasn't completely left my life.

    I haven't used Yahoo or Google mail that much in the past, so I'll have to say Hotmail. I suppose I'm just accustomed to the way Hotmail works.

    I use Hotmail a lot.
    I think it's a lot more trustworthy since they have a junk section XD
    Which doesn't help when there is important things in there....>8(

  • I use google, it's easy to join, use and, seem's the easiest to log into for me. :)

    I used to use hotmail, but now i feel it kinda sux (too slow on our comps and stuff X_x; probably cuz we're mac users...)

    I never used Yahoo! before. Is it free? I never really bothered to ask...though i'm guessing it could be since it's popular and all.


    Regardless, I rarely do check my e-mail...XD It's a horrable habbit i need to break x_X ahhh...lol XD ^^;

  • I've been using Gmail for years now and can't seem to use anything else. I've used all three of these though. Yahoo was probably my first email I actively used but I haven't touched it in about 6 years. XD; I migrated to hotmail and used that until I got Gmail, iirc. I hate Hotmail now though. The interface is so clunky and annoying to use, imo. :( It's just frustrating. I only use it because I'm afraid of getting the account closed for inactivity if I forward it to my main email.

    Anyway I'm gonna toss this into the Tech forum. :/

  • I use GMail because of its SPAM filters. I'm not sure about how it does now against rival webmail services but GMail was the best when I signed up.

  • Gmail had free POP and IMAP when I got invited to the beta, so I switched to that. I've used it ever since.

    I use both Gmail and Hotmail. Gmail is the account I use for signing up to websites ~ I prefer Gmail

    I've always found Gmail to be superior to any of the free email clients out there. Whether it be Yahoo, Hotmail, AIM, or anything else. I even prefer to use Gmail over my own personal Comcast email. Unfortunately, I don't really use my Gmail account for anything other than account related details. For instance, when I make an account somewhere. But... I change my email address like I change my underwear. Seriously. :|

    The only ones I've actually used over a long period of time were two @msn.com email addresses, and maybe one @gmail.com address. But when I need to give someone like a teacher or potential employer, usually I give them either my Gmail address or my Comcast one. Which ever one comes to mind first...

    But in my opinion, I've found:
    Gmail > Yahoo > Hotmail

    Unlike others, my Hotmail inboxes were always flooded with spam messages to the point where I grew too frustrated to use that account anymore.
