email question


What service do you use? I want to move from yahoo to gmail, but not sure how to do this seamlessly and make sure my contacts stay my contacts. Any advice is much appreciated.

My yahoo account was hacked so if you got a email from me at all today, DELETE IT!

I switched from my ISP (Cox) to Gmail and I just didnt delete my old email address so I can check it when I need to. Most people use my new one but once in awhile I get a relivent email at my old address and I just tell the person to swtich it.

You could always forward your Yahoo email to the new Gmail one.

^^^^ I think I've done that. They said it might take a couple days to completely switch. I'll just have to keep up.

A new password is usually all you need to do to fix a hacked account :P Then update the security questions etc.

I use my old ISP one, I keep it. I hate free webmail.




A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

gmail is so solid Clevo. Of all the e-mail spams I get none are from gmail.

I have a friend who works intelligence for the military, he said the way you prevent any hack on your account is a 27 character password. Yep, 27. That is way too much for me but still a good idea.
