So, a new hotmail address was created for me. After some weeks, I said: I can't use this service anymore, it sucks. MSN, like Yahoo!, adds a message ads on each mail I send. Gmail doesn't. Messages aren't threaded, and to search for the origin of a mail, it takes me about 10 minutes. It is really slow. So, I told the bosses I will use Gmail. Unfortunately, you can't transfer automatically mails addressed to your ms account into other mail. Microsoft is like the AIDS virus, once you get it, you'll have it through the rest of your days, even if you hate it. Now, I have to manage the 2 accounts.
