I have 5 invites for GMail going, it's a free 1GB webmail offered by Google (not a typo - that's 1 GigaByte). You can't sign up for it, only get invited by an existing member. If anyone is interested, pm me with an email address and I'll send off the invite ASAP

When you've had a Gmail account for a while they give you a certain amount of invites to dish out. Its their way of spreading it around the world slowly rather than have everyone sign up at once.

Anyone see this? (http://dynamics.org/Altenberg/CURRENT_AFFAIRS/Resist_GMail.html)
Its a bit strange (little worrying) but think the guy might be a bit paranoid.
They can nosey into me all they like.
I'm just delighted with my a/c. :)

Guy like that are part of the problem, they give the rest of us a bad name. The issue genuine privacy campaigners have is not what Google does with your private email now, but what Google could do with your private email in the future. Especially now that they're a public corporation.

I use it for spam trapping, but I wouldn't use it for personal email in a fit. I wouldn't use any "free" (as against ISP) webmail service for private email. If there's even one email in there that you consider personal, or risks embarassing you in the future, freemail is not the place to keep it. Using them for business is just plain idiotic.

Browser you using?

Easiest way would be to get someone else to do it, but if that doesn't work for you it's quite possible Gmail won't either, since it relies very heavily on javascript.
