FEATURES
To help prevent spam, Hotmail asks you to verify your account the first time you send a message.
The Quick View lets you flag emails for a follow-up and there are tools galore for handling junk mail, tagging and organising emails, saving sent messages and so on. Handily, Hotmail can also now run different email accounts from different providers. However, attachments are limited to 10MB and can only be added one at a time, while the constant animated adverts are a pain. Otherwise, we really like the clean lines and soft colours of the new interface.
The Gmail interface looks slightly dated compared to the revamped Hotmail, but it’s full of ways to organise, filter and store your emails. Gmail also supports multiple accounts, can add more than one attachment (up to 25MB per message)at a time, has a neat ‘out of the office’ auto-reply feature (which Hotmail has now dropped) and a life-saving ‘Undo’ button that can give you up to 30 seconds to cancel an email sent in haste.
Both services let you save messages as drafts to send later, spell-check message contents and compose in plain or rich text, but we don’t like the way Gmail groups all replies into a single ‘conversation’, whereas Hotmail keeps messages separate. Both services work on a range of mobile devices
