[Electronics-talk] considering switching email providers

[Christopher Chaltain]

What features bother you? Are you saying that deleting messages is more 
arduous on Gmail then it is using Outlook? Does this mean you're using 
the web interface for Gmail? If so, have you considered using a desktop 
application for Gmail? I use Thunderbird on Windows and Linux. Windows 
Live Mail is also an option. Of course, so it Outlook.

Just to clarify, are you looking for another email provider and want to 
compare it's web interface to that of Gmail? You're using JAWS and 
Windows, but what browser do you use? I've used Gmail web interface a 
bit, and I find their mobile interface especially nice. Gmail's main web 
interface isn't any better or worse than the others I've used, which 
have mainly been from ISP's, like Road Runner. I've heard good things 
about AOL's web interface to their email, and I think I read that Yahoo! 
Mail's web interface was improved a bunch recently. BTW, have you tried 
Gmail's simple interface? I hear that's supposed to be more accessible 
and have less clutter.
