I'm just annoyed (in an OCD sort of way) that when I send email from it (under my Yahoo! identity) recipients will see "blahblah at gmail.com ON BEHALF OF blahblah at yahoo etc". Is there any way to mask that too? <a href="http://www.emoze.com" rel="nofollow">Emoze </a rel="nofollow"> is a free service that pushes email to your phone.

I currently have my 3 'main' personal email addresses set that way and I'm Google all the way. Add in Google Calendar and I don't use Outlook at all for home use. I have it at work and sync calendars with Google... And, frankly, if someone wants to read my email they can. Be they Google or a.n. other hacker. I take as many steps as I can to protect myself but the only way to be certain is to be OFFLINE.. (ack, what a thought!) Now, what's "emoze"? I have used Yahoo Mail in the past but prefer the fact that Google Mail is quick and now loaded up with AJAX 'goodies'. It's also too strictly tidied to my Yahoo login/account which I hardly use but which it insists on trying to log me into 'chat'.. or whatever that we thing up the top of the screen is trying to do (I just cancel it and ignore it).
