GMail is a new mail system offered by Google.
You can find it at: www.gmail.com
The interesting thing is that GMail is not open to the general public and you may only access it via a subscription to their website by mobile phone.
However there are people that give out invitations. You can also access the service through these.
Notice from jlhaslip:
Since this was turning into a gmail invite topic, I moved it here.

I think they're only available to a few countries. I tried it but I couldn't because you need a mobile phone number inside the U.S. The signup requires a mobile phone within the supported countries. This drastically reduces spam from Gmail, as no one would go through so much trouble for spamming.

This is the signup page:

https://www.google.c.../SmsMailSignup1

Valid Countries

Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Phlippines, Thailand, Turkey, U.S.

But you can always ask a friend to register one or recieve the invitation code for you.

I personaly like GMail. I have my own GMail Account which i must say is brilliant.

I highly recommened it to anyone who wants a fairly decent email address without paying $$$.

I´m confused about this topic. Is it just too old? Everybody have Gmail nowadays and I´ve never heard that thing of a mobile phone message and valid countries. And the weird thing is that the post seem to be started today... :blink:
