1 noob question here.

GMail seems to have every mail in the inbox, although I have filter them into seperate special folder when the mail came. Why the inbox still have the mail? Not like yahoo mail. Tat's the part when I start to use Gmail and I dun like already.

But then, I do very love the storage. As my yahoo mail reaching it's max capacity already. Start to worry already

GMail is not using Folder concept, it's using "Tag" concept, you just tag it but not physically move it (like LYN tag)

If you don't want to see it in inbox, in your filter you have to tick this option

- Skip the Inbox (Archive it)

which mean all new mail will be stored in the archive instead of inbox/redirect the new mail from inbox to archive

For me i still stick with GMAIL as i encounter with situation that a sender sent out 2 mail, Only the gmail can get it instantly and for another mail that send to the hotmail was missing. Damn annoyed if that mail is very urgent & important!

I like Yahoo webmail becoz it's fast and it provides 2GB of space. It's user-friendly.. ez for those who're still new to learn/discover it. Meanwhile, I like Gmail becoz of its super large space.. and its POP service. I'm currently using Thunderbird to get my Gmail emails. It's fast n convenient too biggrin.gif But I dont really support Hotmail.. becoz the space provided is obviously small and dunno why, it takes long time for my pc to load hotmail.com. furthermore, I registered hotmail acc. last time becoz I thought I need to have one hotmail to register a msn messenger .net acc. That's how i get all my 3 emails. LOL xP
