I don't personally use these services, so I can't confirm this myself, but does anyone know if this statement is/could be true? "On the one hand it is free, but then so are Hotmail and Yahoo - which both also rely on advertising, but which don't appear to trawl through your emails and hit you with intrusive ads within milliseconds." I find it hard to believe that Yahoo and Hotmail don't target ads... seems to me that maybe Google just does a better job.
