I am behind on my bills, my house is getting repo'd, both cars broke down, and my wife doesn't yet know about my pregnant girlfriend.

If I get Gmail, will my problems go away ?

Of course, we aren't talking about the few times Gmail has gone down either... huh...?

ALL email is subject to have down time and issues... it's not related to just an ISP ... the main reason that one would usually avoid ISP email is they are then STUCK with that provider as it makes it harder to migrate away from them later.. not becuase they have email issues.

Yahoo, Gmail, and many of the other large email services have had problems.... TWC, Comcast, ATT ... email problems.. anyone who hosts their email with indi providers.. problems..

... in the end.. email isn't perfect no matter who hosts it.

I'm sure that the Earthlink email problem upset all remaining 1,000 people who still use it.

I run my own Exchange server. That hasn't been 100% problem free but when something goes down I know the most effort is being made to restore service.

Also, I could take a backup and restore on a new server if need be. Or I can choose to setup a new server and start filling blank mailboxes (at least I get my mail).

Or if I get tired one day I can just point my domain somewhere and use it with "ISP email!"
