I've tried Yahoo mail, didn't like it, I even tried Fastmail in the
past. (which was slow)
Gmail is responsive for me, and has a lot of good features that I like
and that I use.
And so far I have yet to see any proof of Google actively scr*wing
over their customers, by violating their privacy. Yes they add ads on
the side of the page by scanning your email,
Yes, google is scanning *my* email and selling adds fitting to
the mail - maybe also selling informations about me to others...
You as gmail user has agreed that google is allowed to
- scan *my* email
- to save *my* email as long as google likes.
That's why I do not like Google Mail. As we Russians say, "if you can
see free cheese, beware: this usually means there is a mousetrap".As for
me, Google collects too much private data.And even if Google is "not
evil", when it comes that Big Brother asks to share some data, it is
hard or impossible to deny such request. Google already had some issues
with this. So, free cheese is cool but actually it often has high price
hidden a bit. Each mouse knows this but not each and every human does
:).It is interesting, does someone still remembers that privacy is still
your right?
I can't understand why people so close-fisted not spending
some US$/Euros a year for a mailservice without advertisement
and data mining. When more users would do this, better
services would be on the market.
I'm already learned that perfect service possible only if you'll set up
your own server so everything works like YOU want. Everything else is
... well, acceptable at most.
My sound was wrong - I just want make you think that you
are give away you and others privatcy for a free webmailservice.
And when the webmailer is also reason for trouble....
I'm do not care about google mail. However it is quite strange that when
I'm about to reply, there is actual message author in To: and mailing
list in CC: in my Thunderbird.As for me, this is inconvienient. IMHO,
list address should be in "from" header by default, isn't it?
