How many email accounts do you have?

Many people I know now have more than one. When I first got email it was in the early days of email service providers and I was mainly using it for business. Occasionally the service would go down, so I signed up for another as a back-up. When services became more reliable, I didn't need the back-up and let it drop. Over the years I tried to keep the same email address so I didn't have to keep informing people of changes. I even got my broadband from the same provider so I could keep the same email address. Recently I decided to get Google Mail to set up an Alert for invisible text in Constant Content articles (a safeguard against plagiarism). I also get notifications of comments on my blog there, too I really like the fact that its little envelope sits in my Google toolbar and opens to let me know when I have new mail. Do you have multiple email providers? Which is your favourite?

I have 3 or 4 e-mail providers. Hotmail, Outlook, Yahoo. They are all good but I think I prefer Outlook because it is easy to use although you do have to pay for microsoft office to get it which can be quite a lot. So that is the downside but if you do have it I would recommend it.

I already have Microsoft Office. I use Outlook Express in preference to Outlook, but it is not the my email provider, just the program that facilitates it. You can use it for any email address if you set it up.

I'd be afraid I'd get confused about which ones I'd checked if had more accounts. Unless, of course, they were all forwarded to one inbox, as someone else has said they've organised. I'm not sure how to do that from different service providers.

I prefer gmail with which I have registered two accounts. It is very comfortable and easy to use and I have put aside the other emails.

That's sensible too, if you mean noone sends messages to the others.
