Spam Battles Into Your Inbox

"Google's Gmail offers 2GB of storage with spam filtering but no virus scanning or .au addresses. It has downloadable software to notify you when mail arrives, but doesn't have instant-messaging software or features such as online calendars and to-do lists. Google focuses heavily on searches, with desktop search and a browser toolbar and a news search site. Google is also integrated with the online discussion groups. Its maps and local search features are yet to cover Australia." Source: theage.com.au
