I have my mail acoounts on Hotmail, Yahoomail, Gmail, Rediffmail, Sifymail, AIM, Zapak, Indiatimes and may be a few more but don't remember. Why people would need to have more than one mailbox? My answer is .....I use them to make a lot email pals all around world and friends to chat. What's your idea to use more than one mail box? i am sure everybody does have more than one.

Hii kprinces! Happy Mylotting to you too. As you wrote it is hard to keep track on emails and better thing is to have just 2-3 mail acoounts for various uses. Moreover, most of the mail services has features to keep seperate your mails according to the importance by using filters. Thanks for your response.

With the many providers each contesting to offer the best storage, I have as many email accounts as there are number of providers. Despite the many email accounts I have, there are only 2 active email accounts I am using now. I have learnt that is more manageable to consolidate all my emails.

I have a few... 3 that are "used"... 1 that I made and never accessed again. I use 1 as my main one, 1 for when I apply for a job or something important online, and 1 for when I sign up for things that I know will do nothing more than accumulate spam...

One is enough, two is too many and three is a headache for me. Thinking of all these time wasted just to delete all the spam mails in my inbox every day making it impractical for me to have more than two email accounts.

It is good to have more than one email id. i have accounts in yahoo,gmail, rediff mail, hotmail etc. But i use gmail and yahoomail regularly. Sometimes when you forget the password of any mail , you can use the other one. Although , "forgot my password" feature is there, sometimes it becomes a headache to retrieve .

[i]Hello nee_raks, I have at least two emails accounts. One in Yahoomail, Gmail and Hotmail. I also have other accounts before but I don't remember them anymore. I like yahoo and gmail because of their big capacity. But both sites seems to slow down and have some minor issue. I am not using hotmail very often now, but it was the first email account that I have. It seems it has some minor issue too. Of all you accounts, what can you recommend to be ok? Regards.[/i]

Have 3 different servers for email.. I also use one in particular for spam mail and it keeps all that junk out of my regular family/friends main email. I think it is better to have more than one, then if you really don't want someone you are unsure about having your main address you dont have to worry about them pestering you.

there is no different in performance between three email. Gmail is lighter in loading data. Yahoo have integration with messenger. Aol will better security but heavy for loading data.
