I don't use it for posting, but rather, it's an e-mail list archive for me :) All the lists I belong to are sub'ed to this one address, and I use it for quick searching, since most lists' archives rather suck. Gmail has, rather obviously, fantastic search :) -- Seeya, Paul ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
Re: Gmail invites anyone?
Spam has been minimal so far. I've been using it since october and I've been very happy with it. Yahoo has always been too anoying with the ads. I'm down to 40 invites. It's interesting that I've had 5-6 and one day I suddenly have 50. On Apr 5, 2005 10:03 PM, Karl Hergenrother <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > If Tom runs out, I have 50.

Re: Gmail invites anyone?
If Tom runs out, I have 50. I have used Gmail for 5 months and have not seen a single spam. It caught a few false positives, but quickly learned that it was mail I wanted and automagically adjusted the filter.
