gmail invites

manadren · Post by **manadren** » Thu Sep 02, 2004 10:51 am

If you want an invite into the gmail beta test, pm me with your email address. First come first served until I run out.

Please note that there have been reports of hotmail bouncing invites, and yahoo filtering them as bulk mail if you have one of those addresses.

If you don't know what gmail is, it's a free webbased email service offered by google. Check out a review.

Geez, I think Gmail is gearing up to go open beta, they've let the floodgates loose with these invites

Yeah I like it too now.

When you give away all your invites does gmail give you more to give away?

Seems like it. I still got plenty to give away.

I've got like 12 invites or something if anyone runs out and someone needs some.

I've had my two accounts with them for a while now, so yeah...um, I don't really use gmail much yet?

I don't trust anything that's in beta.

Wow that's a lot. How come you have 2 accounts when you don't use it much?

I got both my gmail accounts on the same day, that's why. :þ

A couple of my friends both had invites and I asked them both because I didn't know which would send...and I got two.

I've used it a couple of times to send large files...

...but not for general email usage right now.

Who knows what they'll change after the beta period is over? So why switch to it completely? (rhetorical questions, btw)

Yes this is true. Maybe I should think about not switching to it completely.

What would/could they change?

They may not keep it free (especially for that large amount of space...that might be for a "paid version" or something), they may change the size regardless of paid/unpaid version, they may change the format to something you end up not liking...anything they want, really.

And if you've already completely migrated to it and end up thinking it sucks...now you've got to tell everyone you're back at the old email address.

I'll wait for the beta period to be over with first, thanks.
