[Leica] OFF-TOPIC: Google mail (gmail)

[rangefinder at screengang.com (Didier Ludwig)]

This is the destiny of most free mailers. Hotmail, googlemail, yahoo, gmx 
and others - they're all strongly endangered to land in the spam black 
lists, as they are massively abused by real spammers. I guess Google will 
try evertything to get out again, but this will take time. And as we say in 
german "Einem geschenkten Gaul schaut man nicht ins Maul" (you don't look at 
the teeth of a horse you get for free), don't ask too much from free 
services.
