    Well, what e-mail client do you use for most of your e-mails? (Think Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, etc.)
     
    I prefer Windows Live Hotmail. One of the reasons I prefer it is because I can make e-mail aliases for my main address to handle spam and protect against possible junk mail. Also, unlike Gmail's alias option, The alias doesn't have to be related to the root address. Thus, it's harder for spam businesses to target your aliases. :)
     
    I use my Hotmail account for spam mails and stuffs I won't really need. And I use Gmail for business mails and important account informations.
     
    I use mail. The only email I check is my Mobile Me / iCloud address (maaaaaybe my gmail every now than then), even though I have soooo many email accounts.
     
    Gmail, used to have lots of hotmail/Windows Live accounts for making game accounts, as they are easy to make then, but now... I only use my Gmail account.
     
    My main accounts are both Gmail, I use my @msn and aol accounts as secondary, and yahoo as my spam box.
     
    Gmail has worked the best for me! It's simple to use, has a nice layout, and I like the overall neatness of it.
     
    I have a bunch of different addresses for multiple different reasons. So instead I just throw them all into Thunderbird. If I'm forced to pick though: Gmail due to how straightforward it is.
     
    I use Sparrow for my Gmail and custom email accounts simply because I'm a sucker for good user interfaces. I use email more than instant messengers nowadays and actually it's been like that for the past three or so years so having a good email client is crucial. It's a shame that the team behind Sparrow left to work for Google. There will be more feature updates done to the client and if there will be any updates it'll be security fixes.

    Sparrow is still useable, no doubt, but sooner or later it'll have to be replaced. I'm patiently waiting for Unibox, .Mail, and perhaps the native Mac client of Mail Pilot.
     
    I use hotmail, easy to use and i can block Spammers easily, i have a Gmail account but i don't know where anything is!, thus i don't use it hehe.
     
    I have a bunnnnnnnch of Yahoo emails, and Yahoo is waaaaaay better than GMail, imo.
