i'm definitely liking the whole 100mb storage deal with yahoo. hotmail is evil... now if only they'd work on spam.
I just got gmail too! Well, not that I used it anyway....4 invites left. I'm happy with my yahoo one anyway. I'm not that greedy.

Gee...This is great! I wish these companies keep fighting until we get 1 gb of space and i dunno! Free everything!

And i bet if Google hadnt of done the 1GB mail Hotmail/Yahoo/anyone else would have upgraded their storage.
Yes, google does scan the email. No, people who work there aren't reading your email. A computer scans your email to display related words. Like if someone e-mailed you about dogs, Google would then show a small ad on the side of the page related to dogs. Its not spyware.
So if your hot girlfriend, writes you about how she wants to sex you up at the soonest possible date, they'll display an ad for Viagra? No thanks, I'd rather not have ANYTHING scan my emails.
You'd have to be really paranoid to not even let a respected company like Google with secure servers scan your email.
If I wanted advertisements displayed when I read my e-mail, I'd google for results myself. They should give you the right to turn off the feature. I believe I'll wait for the new Hotmail.
See, I don't understand what the problem is. Yahoo! displays ads. Hotmail displays ads. Email.com displays ads. Et cetera, et cetera. The only difference with Google is that they display ads based on what your email is about. I don't see the big deal about that.
