Well, not only did you top-post, but you've diverted the discussion into a completely different angle. Possibly a non-sequitur - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non_sequitur_(logic) . I didn't talk about the privacy issues involved with Google in general and GMail.com in particular. As much as I'm aware of this issue, I didn't seem to suffer from it so far (as Nadav mentioned) and it is global to all popular web-services in the WWW-oriented world. One can take some client-side measures to mitigate them, but I didn't bother so far. What I did talk about were usability problems in GMail.com, which cause me to still prefer KMail. These affect my day to day use of email, and bother me or make me more content in using the program or service. If you want to discuss the Google.com privacy issues feel free to do so, but I won't take any further part in it. These privacy issues don't affect the usability of the email service I'm using so I'll keep it as that.
