Which Email Provider?

Hi Everyone.

I was just wondering what Email Provider do you use for Comping? I have always been with AOL

I do get the odd win now and again but just recently I have noticed when companies on facebook or twitter ask me to email them my details they do not receive the email from me as if AOL has some kind of block on it.

and Today I found I won a prize but then noticed it said they were re drawing a winner because I did not reply to the email

I did not have an email and I do not delete anything just hit mark read for Spammy stuff so that I can always look back on old email. It was a win that I would have really liked as my dad asked me to try win one.

So now I am thinking of ditching AOL. The only reason I use it is because I am so used to it and because the filter folder is so easy to use and clear. I tried to use hotmail recently but for some strange reason the sent folder was empty :eek: despite having entered email competition with it. So I am abit confused and just wondered what you all used and your experience with it?

Thanks for your help.:T

Well I use gmail just because I think it is the best email provider:D

Lots less glitchy than hotmail and as far as I'm aware I've never missed a comp email with it.

I use yahoo = used to use hotmail but some comps don't seem to accept it (and my account was hacked)

I use rocketmail, which is essentially an offshoot of yahoo.

Gmail here too, the best and most simple to use I think

I've been with GMail for years and never had a problem. I've had SPAM emails from people with both Hotmail and Yahoo accounts that have been hacked and someone else has sent them.
