I've 50 invites I can't get rid of. PM me if you want any

[Fair_play_boy]

Not sure what this means. Is this the way to get a gmail address? If so, I would like in please.

[City Hero]

Or is it an ingenious way to find out some more info on peoples true identities. If so, then wrong message board I'm afraid. Try here, although there might only be about 5 actual users over there.

I have a $hit load of invites too if anyone is interested.

[Gerrit]

I have 48 left

What I was wondering: does Gmail policies include everyone can have only one account, or can I send an invite to myself to have a second Gmail address ?

I am one of the few internet users that rather follows the rules than providing fake name and address etc to have a second account. My Hotmail's stuck with 2 MB still because I don't want to lie by giving an American zipcode to get 250 MB...

Except for adult sites, then a false name can be handy

I wouldn't mind an invite if anyoen has any to spare, could come in handy. Send us a PM if you have some to give out.

EDIT - Ignore that, I've got an invitation now. Cheers Adam.

[De Town]

I have 50 invites myself.

Anyone wants one, PM me with your current email address.

Just wondering whether or not this could be made a sticky?!?!?! might be handy for people to know that theres a load of gmail invites going around because this thread will disapear fast!

On the subject of G-mail can you only use the webmail or can you set it up with outlook express at all? I've had a look around it and it doesn't seem to say anything so I'd guess that means you can only use it as webmail.

That should set you up.

Excellent stuff, I had completley missed that, thanks Jim!

[Gerrit]

The question is why you'd want it in Outlook. Because don't most people have Gmail to have a gigantic webmail account ? You can just as well put a 2 MB Hotmail account in Outlook, then it's advantageous because thanks to Outlook you get rid of the 2 MB inbox limit. With Gmail you get 2 GB so I don't really see why you would not use the great webmail

Unless... if you can get to install it in a way that mails both end up in your webmail and in Outlook... Then you can use the handy Outlook features at home but still check your email from any computer as well.

Which is exactly what I've done, it's great!

I just think outlook is handier, I leave it open and it automatically checks for E-mail every 10 minutes or so, it's just handier than having to log in every time. I can still use the webmail all the same though.

So the email you receive is stored at the same time in Outlook and in your webmail, just like it is usually in Outlook and webmail ?
That is impressing

What about outgoing mails ? If you send them via webmail, do you have them also in the Sent Items folder of your Outlook ? Or vice versa, if you send the mail via Outlook, does the outgoing mail also end up in the webmail's Sent Items folder ?



I've been looking for a while for a webmail/POP mail provider that lets me use my own domains...

[Slash/ED]

Yeah that's how it works for incoming e-mails alright, I've just tested it out. I don't think sent e-mails come up in both though, but if you really want them to you could always forward them on to yourself and then you'll have the e-mail in both inboxes anyway.
