I would say that right now no e-mail service provider is as good as Gmail. With the amount of extensions and downloads that you can use with Gmail and the storage space it provides, Gmail is by far the best. Not to mention the new services that are going to come along with Gmail in the future (such as Google Calendar and all that). I also seem to like goowy a little. It's not as good but it's a change from the normal perception of e-mail, but it the people who created it might have used a bit too much flash.
