that's 250mb for free and 10mb attachments.
hopefully it is really free.

probally, yahoo now gives 100mb for free

look at all that GMail has caused.

Awesome.

yeah, obviously it doesn't hurt them a ton to offer this much. comcast gives you a ton less then this.

MSN/Hotmail sucks. I'll stay with Yahoo until Gmail goes public or someone invites me.

I was tempted to switch to gmail when it goes public. Now since Hotmail is finally offering more space I'll probably keep my primary account there. I will open up a gmail account to test it out, but I'm pretty happy with Hotmail.

Hotmail = spam magnet

hotmail is sweet, cause its the only free email service that gives you pop3 email access.

Great, I primarily use hotmail.

anyone want gmail?

I have one invite, and the first person to PM me will get it.

I need your email address, and name.

It's good hotmail is bumping the size to 250mb. For a while back, it was getting hard to have to check hotmail daily or else it would be filled with spams then all the people who want to email me wouldn't be able to do.

also great because it gives you unfettered spam access

Isn't that the point of Hotmail? A place to send junk you don't want on your regular account?

that's what's mine is for. JUNK MAIL. I use it to make sure someone gets an attachment, for some reason my Hotmail attachments have a better rate of actually arriving opposed to comcast

finally! with all the spam that i get from hotmail, they should be giving us a gig like gmail! :P

YAY! Now Microsoft will have even more of our personal data on their servers to go through and sell to advertisers! Wonderful. But it's not like Yahoo and even Gmail aren't doing the same thing, though. I don't like the idea of companies having access to so much of people's information. That's probably the reason for all this expansion...not for the user's benifit so much. Email is not...secure.
