Gmail! You have to be invited by a gmail user to get it. I can invite you, just e-mail me at justaskforit@gmail.com .\n\nGmail is Google's free webmail service. It comes with built-in Google search technology and over 2,600 megabytes of storage (and growing every day). You can keep all your important messages, files and pictures forever, use search to quickly and easily find anything you're looking for, and make sense of it all with a new way of viewing messages as part of conversations. \n\nThere are no pop-ups or untargeted banner ads in Gmail, only small text ads. Ads and related information are relevant to your messages, so instead of being obtrusive, they may even be useful for once. \n\nGmail also integrates instant messaging right into the email experience, so you can stay in even better touch with your friends when you're online. Easy, efficient and maybe even fun to use. It's a whole new way to think about email. It's Google's approach to email.

First of all, yahoo mail, gmail and hotmail are all webmails, now to your question..\nGmail is the newest email service of the three and it has the largest mailbox free storage capacity.  It's the email of choice for a lot of people cause of its ability to sort, organize and search within emails.  Since then, Yahoo and Hotmail have also implemented the same features to their own email systems.  Gmail is owned by Google, Yahoo by Yahoo and Hotmail by MSN.  \nI personally like Yahoo the best, especially the new Yahoo Beta version, it's clean interface with its drag and drop features (from one folder to another) is very easy and functional.  Gmail would be next cause it has little advertisements which makes it the fastest by far.  Hotmail is probably one of the worst due to its limited storage capacity, the abundance of junk mails I've encountered there and its heavy graphics....and you need to login to Hotmail once a month, which I thought is a pain in the arse.\n\nHope this helps, I have all 3 accounts.

Are they in different domains countrywise? Then the design of the webpages might differ.It is not possible for any email account not to have facilities for attachments.

Join is free, but is the e-mail service also free? I think it is just become a member for free, nothing else, am I right?

Gmail scans your computer, due to its algorythms. They ask first, but in order to run Gmail - you have to allow them to scan - for behavioral activity and spam reduction.\n\nSome folks are ok with it - others feel its a "violation" of their privacy - but again - they ask first - you get to decide. Considering the amswers here - I wonder if anyone knew that when they got an account...

I prefer gmail.  It has some really unique features that make it stand out from others.  The main one being that when you are conversing back and forth with somebody, all the messages are stored as one "conversation" so you can see it all at once, in one place, and don't have your inbox clogged up with tons of messages that are really all replies about the same thing.  Also, most e-mail services let you store messages in folders, but Gmail calls them "labels" and you can apply more than one label to a message, kind of like cross-referencing them.  It's the best!

Generally people wont send Gmail invitations to unknown persons due to obvious reasons (misuse, integrety problems etc.)\njust google for a "gmail invitation".\nSome websites offer them, but they want you to keep a link in your own website leading to their site.

free e-mail service attach ads with your email. it won't give u as much space as paid service, u can't access free e-mail through POP3, paid email service don't show ads in ur inbox. Well, the biggest difference is the size of your inbox.

Certain mail programs automatically do this (gmail for one), but, likely, you'll need to do it by hand.  If your old account is terminated, then e-mails sent to it just bounce.

You pretty much summd it up there from A to Z. \n\nAs far as any new email standards with an emphasis on security ( or in that realm) , I can honestly say I haven't heard of anything new at this time.\n\nThat's a excellent question though.
