Sogou Mail, Hosted For Your Domain,1g Size just as GMail, Live Mail,

Recommended Posts

I'm curious. What is the advantage of going through a service like Sogou instead of GMail? GMail offers over twice the mail space, additional services for your domain, and is backed by a reliable company. I'm not trying to criticize Sogou, but I want to understand what attractive features are available in competing companies, so I can best weigh my options.

Sogou is actually a pretty reliable/well-known search? :P company in China. But considering that not everyone here speaks Chinese, there's no point recommending it as an email service. And besides, isn't there also a Gmail version for Chinese users? If all aspects of the Gmail service were translated fluently, then I would recommend that to a Chinese user.

Yeah, Sohu/Sogou is well-known in China.

Gmail doesn't support POP3? Though I've never actually used it, I've always seen it available to chose from under 'Settings'. But perhaps it was just a misleading option on Google's part. And...*glances at Gmail*...no ads currently! JK...that's because I have Firefox's adblock on. Yeah, no ads is definitely a plus. It all depends on what you need (more email storage space or better SMTP/IMAP/POP3 access or no ads) weighed in with accessibility (language issues).
