Gmail Alternative

I just use hotmail personaly, I have a gmail account but I can't use it as I forgot my password, and I don't know enough about myself to get it unlocked!

For this reason, I think gmail is rubbish.
 
I like how on Gmail you can put dots anywhere within the username and the email still comes through. And the ability to use +word in your email address too e.g. [email protected]. Handy when you sign up to something and working out who is selling your details on to spammers.
 
The whole dot thing is a pain for me too. I joined when it first started up and took the format [email protected]. Now I get a lod of crap through from someone who seems to have signed up using [email protected]. Why do google allow people to sign up for essentially what is the same email account? I also worry that maybe he will recieve some of my emals as I seem to get so many which are clearly intended for him.

How?
They only update the server. They don't update on other devices, like yahoo/gmail do.
If I look at a yahoo email on the iPad, the iPad and net version are updated as viewed, if I switch to iPhone, it is still shown as unviewed and as far as I know there is nothing you can do to change this.
Unlike yahoo/gmail, which updates across all platforms.

Whatever I do on the iphone will update the server and vise versa. Never had anything not update correctly but I don't use two devices.
