[raman_286]

actually my yahoo account has been receiving a lot of spam....lots of it....so,I just wanted to know which one is better for spam protection....

How about Google - Well known Search Engine company, who have newly started providing email services... Let me see if I have an invite... Or Yahoo - full of Joy , have been around for some time... or Hotmail - created by... Sabeer Bhatia (name sounds so similar to mine) .. and... Wait a minute.. This is indeed 2012

[raman_286]

ha ha ha....now stop bullying me guys.....I just look like a caveman here..LOLZ

 

[mhsabir]

Yeah.. Also, it also depends on how & where you share your email-id... I also get a lot of spam mail in all 3 accounts , but 99.9% is automatically filtered.

 

[raman_286]

yup.....see admin understands my problem....

 

[Sushubh]

well i dont understand how you have been using yahoo mail for so many years.

 

[raman_286]

I got an account on almost every email provider.....but my primary email id has been on yahoo since a long time.....I have a gmail account which I use for very important mails....for all other junk stuff I use yahoo....but I like zoho too....I like its interface.....

 

[mhsabir]

I too use Yahoo.. But now its there only for some Yahoogroups (Yup, I still get some mails) & because I had registered it at some job sites.

----------

zoho? I am hearing it for the first time. I don't know about them - But I would suggest not to use any relatively unknown folks as your primary email - But to replace your "junk" yahoo account - might be ok.

 

[raman_286]

Finally I'll stick to gmail....and yeah I too live in 2012.....ha ha ha ha ha

Gmail. Yahoo pretty much sucks with those intrusive Ads in your face and actually Channels all the spams in the inbox. Only grudge is that i couldn't got official name id on Gmail (had created in 2004)
