Over 2000Mb of storage and growing every second. Unlike normal email, folders aren't used for filing the email. Instead it is displayed as conversations - in the form Fred, me (7) (Fred is who you are emailing and 7 refers to how many messages are in the conversation), emails are also labelled instead of being stored in folders (can have multiple labels for one message). Completely JavaScript driven (HTML support expected in the future) and very responsive - you almost forget it is webmail.

Emails are in plain text format, but web links are automatically made into clickable links. Images in emails are disabled by default (with the ability to turn them on) - a first for a free webmail provider, thus helps prevent email harvesters (who use images for tracking). Actually, Hotmail's had images disabled by default for a while. Not sure about e.g. Yahoo. --JonathanHardwick
