4 free Gmail accounts
Mark18 - 11/1/05 at 11:47 AM

I have 4 Gmail accounts for whoever wants them, you get 1000Mb of storage with them so you don't have to delete any e-mails. Nice archiving system too. All I need is your full name and a current email address.

I've sent you a U2U.

That would be excellent, I've been wanting one of these for a while, but never managed to get one.

Many thanks

Ali

If Mark runs out, I've got 5 I can give out too if anyone wants one.

Guys I can sort out @locostbuilders.co.uk email addresses for you. Just drop me an email!

Chris


Mark18 - 11/1/05 at 03:04 PM

I'm all out anyway. Chris, just out of interest, what do you charge for hosting and email?

Mark


ChrisW - 11/1/05 at 03:16 PM

You can have a free @locostbuilders address and/or locostbuilders.co.uk/~username website. Other than that, standard deal is £30 for a year all in, including uk domain name, 100MB hosting, PHP, Perl, email, spam & virus protection etc

Don't mention it.

Mark


alister667 - 18/1/05 at 06:02 PM

Lo and behold!
I now have three Gmail invites to give away. If anyone wants one U2U me your first name, last name and e-mail addy and I'll send on an invite.

What's "Gmail"?

Chris, can I have some Locostbuilders webspace?

Cheers

i just googled it - turns out, its email from google!!!! now thats a funny coincidence!

lots of storage and you can search through your archive.


alister667 - 18/1/05 at 10:38 PM

It's jusrt another free web based e-mail. The big thing is that it gives so much free space. There's downside in that they are allowed to search your e-mails for marketing data.
Seems like a good job though, well designed and handy to use. There are lots of gmail tools popping up so you can use your gmail account as a file system, or can get automated tools to let you know you have mail, forward from hotmail etc.

It's a very geeky thing I guess :-)

hotmail is giving 250mb accounts for free now, and thats not bad either!

Free 1 gb account via spymac.com
You don't need to be running a mac... linux and Windozes works just as well. It is OS agnostic.

I was searching for a Gmail account when I stumbled onto spymac. Sad part is that Spymac is browser based. Anyone with a Gmail account.....can you down load it to a e-mail prog on the PC via...outlook, mozilla mail type or is it only web based?

Spymac is kinda klunky...can't right mouse click and open a message into a new window. Just one window open at a time? If you want to able to download messages to a e-mail prog you need to pay extra. (Yes I am a cheap bastard) Similar to hotmail, (Yuck)....

Yahoo is giving away 250mb free and you can right mouse click into a new window. Yahoo North_America_Locost messages go there.

Can Gmail download into a e-mail prog? or is it a strictly brower based affair?


Got Anymore Gmail accounts??


Thanxs

Although only a visitor (well, not technically) I will be cheeky and ask for one of you to send me an invite if possible.
Many thanks in advance. My full name is Lee Marks, email address pukemonkey@hotmail.com

So much for hinting maybe I should just flat out ask.
If you have another may I have an invite/ account.


alister667 - 20/1/05 at 02:01 PM

Sorry Duane, I just expected folks to U2U me - I didn't bother to re-check the tread until there now.

Anyhow I did have an invite left which I sent on to you.

Odd thing is ....

They've given me another 4 invites!

U2U me your first name , last name and e-mail address if you want one.

Yep there are lots of tools you can get to allow you run a normal POP3 e-mail program with Gmail, although it is normally browser based.

Steve - Yep Hotmail do apparently do 250Mb accounts, however the SOBs haven't upgraded mine from 2Mb yet. I'm setting up a small program that forwards my incoming hotmail stuff to Gmail automatically, then set up something like Thunderbird to access the gmail.

Hmmm. I need to get out more.

All the best

Ali
