Topic: 'New' Hotmail?

[Lishka]

Well, I've tried it and really, but really really loathe it...........why fix wot's not broke? :(((

So my question is.....is gmail an alternative?

I've had yahoo since 2003 as a site I use for occasional mails (freegle/car ins. quotes. etc.) but have always kept hotmail for general use.......

Maybe time to change?

And is switching over existing files a great problem?

Thanks for any input,

Lishka

I also can't stand it! Not sure if enough to change, i use it for my sec role at the lottie, would be a lot of hassle to move

I prefer the new outlook.com - clean and simple.
However it isn't easy to export your mails from it.

Luckily gmail is a great alternative to Hotmail/outlook if you don't like the new look and they do provide a way to import your Hotmail mail and contacts...

I would steer clear of yahoo mail

I use Hotmail & Yahoo mail.  Hotmail is doing my head in since it changed over.  On the other hand i have used yahoo for a few years & find it Ok. May just scrap hotmail i will give it a couple more weeks then POOOOW.
