Can you please let me know if you use gmail as your email.
My reason for asking is that lately we have been getting a lot of spam attacks and 99% of these are using gmail.
If none of our members use it then I will consider banning it.

I'm using Gmail. I have different accounts, but I collect almost all my e-mails with Gmail.

Gmail is the third most popular free e-mail client right after Hotmail and Yahoo. Statistic here.
Mickp, I had a big spike of spammers on my website last month, so I had to change the registration. I demand confirmation of e-mail now and about 10% of all registration goes with activation. It keeps my job to minimum.
