  I live on the planet not defined only by your personal experiences.

    Ok then go research how many companies in silicon valley give their employees Gmail. All the companies I've been worked provided Gmail only because there is really not a good open source option. And Google accounts is a huge monopoly that obviously sounds bad enough to hurt your feelings. But this is the reality. Google is a valley of shit and most of us want to move on from it.

      Criticizing Google doesn't "hurt my feeling". I've moved away from Gmail and other Google services (not all) a few years ago because I disagreed with their options. But that doesn't mean I have to agree with nonsensical claims such as Google having a monopoly on email. Maybe they do on Silicon Valley, but I'm sure you realize that's a pretty insignificant subset of email users.

        I believe we aren't in the same planet.

          You sound like you're getting pretty emotional. Time for a cup of tea and a sit down?

            yeah, I'm really upset to not have any alternative of Gmail. What do you recommend ?
