That might just be my personal preference though. I did actually hear about that, but I think it is a little easier having an address that is all just one word.

Gmail always seems rock solid but right when you let your guard down, BAM! ACCESS DENIED.I checked my Gmail account (I only use it to test the service) and it took a long time to login. I think this was actually the first time I logged in since my account got the POP3 input, causing the delay.This is why I use Y! mail. No, who am I kidding? I use Y! for the incredibly feature filled, relatively quick, desktop-like mail beta.It's also good to not worry about finding my email gone (although I hear of error codes and other glitches occasionally on the Y-mail group). That's pretty bad though that Google has their own "Gmail Down" group. I actually didn't know Google had groups. I looked at the site and it seems real plain and dull. I much prefer Y! groups.I do have to say, Google docs are pretty incredible for a full online app. Also, I heard Gmail lets you stream .mp3 attachments. Pretty cool. Gmail was first on the chat, but I'm glad Y! finally copied. Now if only they could implement a chat message archive (like Gmail's).Is your Gmail still down? Yep, it’s remarkable.

Luckily they weren't anything important, but hopefully there were no important ones that I was supposed to get. @curtissthompson: I know for a fact that at least 2 emails never got delivered to me that I was expecting.

Also, if you want email backup, downloading the messages to your hard drive is probably the best option. I’m having no problems logging in.
