Found this quote in an old email:
"Let all flowers blossom (even the thorny ones)"
It was in regards to the sender's philosophy of how to handle moderating a message group, but it seems like a nice sentiment in general.
My main email address seems to have been having some problems lately, so after a long while of only using webmail services, I have downloaded an email client, Thunderbird. I hadn't even realized before now that I could have been using POP for free with my Gmail account. But I plan on changing over to a new main email address, probably using Yahoo instead of Excite. Yahoo's upgraded (non-free) service, in addition to allowing POP access, has a feature where you can create multiple temporary email addresses and access them all through the same account. Then if one of them starts getting a lot of spam, you can just delete it and create a new one.
Hmmm... or perhaps I should just create multiple Gmail accounts. I don't like some of Gmail's webmail interface, but if I'll be using my own client anyway, that would no longer be an issue.
