why use Gmail
Gmail is a tricky animal live without.Many of us having already migrated to Gmail having still retained those old yahoo,hotmail or other inboxes.In such cases it shouldn't be a problem,just use a filter in gmail to forward all your mail to another account,Like I did.But what about those people who have started off with Gmail?They're far too used to the conversation style layout of gmail which clubs relevant conversation togeather.Some are very comfortable with the labelling system(Through personally,I never did mind folders).
Fear not,it's not as if there is no one out there who offers the same.Zoho mail is a nice mail service that will give you much of the functionallity of Google and will even let you access it using your existing Gmail or Yahoo account.In.com offers a small mail ID while giving you the conversation style system along with ample storage space.
Mozilla'sThunderbird,thoughtnottechenically web mail but a mail client,is another great alternative.It has the capability of adding Plugins or extensions.Add in lightining or sunbird and you
can even replace Google calender.If you prefere a web-based calander app then 30 boxes should work for you.It also integrates with Twitter and Facebook.
