I'm going to try this one out too: http://domains.live.com/

Had gmail the first month it was released out. *company got me a invite
Then the msn beta had it first week it came out

*feels cool

I've gotten Google Hosted email accounts for my website, 30 account maximum. I use it for my staff members only though.

I'm in on this! I got 1000 addresses! PM me on my site at http://www.RealityTVFriends.com if you want your email. My question, though, would be where would my users go to sign in to their accounts? Gmail.com ??

Nevermind! I created a user and got the signin link. Can someone write the code so that it's an option in the navbar on 3.6.0, purty please?

The Google one doesn't allow general users to sign up, whereas MSN seems to allow it...

I noticed that too Erwin. A bit of a bum considering when you sign up with Google you agree to use it for a year. Still not wanting to go anywhere near Hotmail though... I'm sure Google will change in time? I hope so.

I just signed up for my new website and entered in that I'd like 500 and was accepted automatically. Just need to setup the MX changes .

does anyone have a hack to syncronize the vbulletin-users with the google accounts?
when I have 1.000 of my users enlisted with googlemail, I can spend several hours each week updating stuff, like kicking banned users etc...
