Best and Worst E-mail Program? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Jack1000 · 01-21-2003, 10:46 PM

Guys,

BEST: I really like Yahoo Mail because of the features and functionality of it. You can even enhance your e-mails with the functions of a simple word-processor. The Spam Guard is great! You can block up to 100 messages of spam and you can also send unopened spam to Yahoo to review. It's very good.

WORST: Alpha PINE Mail, which we had on our old college computers. It was those old "green screen" monitors, no graphic enhancements, spellcheck would tell you a word was wrong, but wouldn't replace it (or at least I never figured out how to use it) You'd have to hit 3 buttons to correct something, it was crap!

We got that!! Sometimes though.. I dont like to pick it up...

LOl. But yea.. it works good. I hate getting a busy signal when I try calling someone. We used to have AOL, but then it messed up. Then we got AT&T but meangya, then it was gonna start charging us a lot more so we canceled. I really wanna go halfsies with Pops and get cable. Anyways, I use Hotmail. I also have an address @ yahoo (forgot it), kittmail.com and a bunch others. LOl. What can I say? I got bored.

I don't know about many email programs, but the best I've used has been Earthlink.

The worst was Gateway, which I think had merged with Compuserve (could be wrong). Gateway frequently kicked back emails not allowing me to contact various parties. The worst was when it wouldn't let me communicate with my aunt who also had Gateway at the time. Hmmm... two Gateway accounts can't even connect? I was told by customer support: Yes, we know there is a problem... but there's nothing we can do about it. Literally, I was told "It's out of our hands." Yeah! Great service!

I use Incredimail. My ATT mail goes right to it. It has some cool sounds, animations, notifiers and backgrounds that you can download. I really like it!

Georgia's on my Mind · 01-22-2003, 03:31 PM

I like Yahoo, and hotmail. I wish I could figure out the colours, ect. for yahoo's mail but it's too confusing for me. I had mail at For-president.com.....awful.
