Do You Check Your Email Accounts Individually? email this discussion to a friend?

Most people nowadays have more than 1 email address and they may be through all difference services, i.e. hotmail, gmail, yahoo, etc.

When you check your emails do you log into each site individual or do you use an email reader? There are email readers such as Outlook, Thunderbird, Eudora, etc.

I personally use Microsoft Outlook and have all my emails synced to my Outlook so that I can get all of my emails in one place. It makes life much easier managing my multiple email accounts.

What about you? Do you check each account individually or do you use some sort of email program?

I use Microsoft Outlook because it is very good and easy to use. I introduced all my account and with a click I receive all new mail what I have on server very easy.

I would give anything to be able to check them all in one place. I have tried many times to set up outlook and thunderbird, but I was never able to get it to work. I don't know what I was doing wrong, but it never worked. I do have to go into each one and I don't like that. If I could figure out how to make it work I would. It might be difficult right now because my operating system is in Chinese so I wouldn't know what it wanted me to do. Can anyone help me with this???

I use "poppeeper" a notification program, which checks my 6 email accounts. Then it pops up a box, and flashes the scroll lock button at set intervals when emails arrive. Then I check the pop ups, and decide if I need to log in to each account. Quite useful...

I have my e-mail accounts synchronized, but my setup is different than yours. My e-mail client is a portable version of Thunderbird, which I can take with me on a flashdrive. It is one of many portable applications that I use (nearly 100).

I have four e-mail accounts, but they're not synced within Thunderbird. And only three of my addresses are known. The first of two Gmail accounts I have automatically forwards everything to AOL, where I use a whitelist filter. Only messages from senders I accept can reach me; everything else is junked automatically. The first Gmail account is also set as my outgoing (SMTP) address in Thunderbird, although I use a Bluebottle address as my alias.

My second Gmail address automatically fetches messages from AOL and Bluebottle, and also contains my final blacklist, which I only use if I don't want to receive messages for which I initially signed up. This Gmail address is set as my incoming (IMAP) address, and I'll always be able to make adjustments from the Web client if my other addresses change. No one knows this second Gmail address but me, and it never shows up in header stamps because I use a different SMTP address.

well i have about 5 email in yahoo. well i have one in gmail which i don't open at all after making an account there. i am more comfortable using yahoo accounts. and i have been actively using it since i started opened this account. well i am really happy with yahoo mail account. but i actively open the three accounts. the other two accounts are not really that important cause the emails there are not really that important. but in the three accounts. i have many emails that i checked every day. i open my email for the whole day. well it is most about my sites that i am into. they will send me notification emails and i will try to answer those notification emails from that. well i am really happy with yahoo. i have no plant to change and make or be active on other mail provider. i have heard that there are many viruses when you use gmail account and so i tried to avoid now using that gmail account. i think i have to make sure that i will not have viruses cause i really don't have any anti virus here on my computer. if only i have antivirus i will have no problem downloading those email from gmail. but still yahoo is the safest for me. i will not run the risk of getting viruses. and i don't really open any email from unknown source. i will just open those email from people i know or sites that i trust. and so i hve been avoiding those mistakes otehr did before.


myLot reputation of 94/100. santuccie (1940)   ranked 241 out of 3,412 in computers  2 years ago

Who told you that Gmail gives you viruses? That is absurd; it's up to the sender to send malware, not the e-mail provider. And Yahoo! Mail gets more spam than Gmail; I know because I've used both. Yahoo! Mail does not offer custom filters, it still has that cheap, Bayesian spam filter that keeps getting fooled by cryptic headers and body text. Gmail does not.

A lot of people are loyal to Yahoo! because it was around before the dot-com bubble, and "intuitively" come up with advantages it has over others. About the only thing free members enjoy from Yahoo! Mail is unlimited storage; they don't get POP/IMAP/SMTP, SSL/TLS encryption, mail fetching, custom filters, or anything else. Oldest doesn't always mean best, especially when the oldest start resting on their laurels. That's what Yahoo! and MSN are doing.

I checked my emails individually. I have 2 yahoo email, 1 hotmail, 1 aol and 1 gmail. I tried to use outlook before but I think I am more comfortable of each account's interface. Like if I want to change some settings, it can easily be done if you are on the actual website. But, I am going to try outlook express again, see how it goes. Cheers:)
