Re: OT: Email
By the way, am I the only one who fails to get the point of having a huge storage space? (From the 250 mb Yahoo offers to those 2gb of Gmail) It still won't allow me to store more than six months worth of mails, and I don't see why I would have more than a couple of mb of mails stored at any given time.
Another mail provider I like is Gawab: no generic spam, POP3 and SMTP support from your mail program, and free. If you would rather browse your mail via a webmail, you can choose to get those huge storage spaces instead (1gb, perhaps 2gb, I haven't checked lately).

You can use the Gmail space as file storage too.

Re: OT: Email
I have a Yahoo address or two and I friggin love it. Like Parasite said, on the addresses you give out you get spam (but the filter is pretty good) and if you don't give out an address you don't get spam.
What I really like about Yahoo! is the features: an address book as good as Outlook, 2GB of storage (think picture attachments), and the mother of all: disposable addresses (the feature is called "Address Guard" IIRC)

With Gmail, you can use Outlook as your mail program.
