Re: who uses comcast email?

Hosted Gmail for domains makes regular Gmail obsolete.

running your own email server beats them both

I've been doing that for years...but there is something to be said about Gmail's fabulous AJAX interface, free POP, and plenty of storage/archive space. I finally switched over to hosted gmail and turned off my own mail server.

POP blows chunks.

Storage storage space is dead cheap, too. Granted, I might actually have to spend money on my storage, but my space limitation is then the size of the drive, not some limit set by someone else. I also don't have to worry about anyone else sifting my mail spools for advertising (or other) "opportunities".

Nothing beats your own mail server, period. (Windows Merak Mail Server), (Linux Post-Fix Mail Server)
