I get the point. I haven't been using any hotmail or yahoo
accounts. I have an mtnl account, which gives me 2 megs (or 5 megs, I
don't
know, can somebody please tell me). I d/l my mail at least once a day,
so
the disk quota shouldn't be exceeded. I guess I'll have to get in touch
with
the mtnl guys on this one. (mtnl helpdesk address, anyone?) As of now, I
request you to just take it a little easy on my email address, because I
definitely check my mail regularly.
