| | According to an article that i just read at the WebProNews Newsletter is posible that the @gmail.com accounts could change to @googlemail.com because Google loose rights to GMail in the UK, i think that it will apply not only to UK and USA gmail accounts it also will apply to all gmail acounts over the world. For me it will be very bad because i have made my gmail account my EMAIL ACCOUNT and i'm very confortable with it.
Here is the complete article: Google: The British Are Coming For GMail!

How could they loos rights to it? Are they selling them or did someone have them first? I use Yahoo and haven't had any problems yet. I don't like how the website is getting to have larger programs but it gets the job done. Do you think you will loose your account? I thought Gmail was still only a beta? I have heard that AOL has a free your_name@your_name.com email account. Maby you could look into that if Gmail looses there rights? Googlemail.com isn't all that bad. Its just a little longer. If you like there mail set up you should stick with it  I was thinking about trying it but I never got invited and didn't really want to try too hard to get someone to invite me. Thanks, Sparkx

No worries my friend, the worst you will have to deal with is a change of name not of e-mail QUOTE IIIR will not, however ask for transfer of the gmail.com domain, only that Google change the name of its email service. You will still be able to keep your original @gmail.com account. The article does say a lot about Googles reaction to corporate conflict... Thanks for the article. -Jordan

Wait will the existing e-mail ends still work? On what legal ground did they lose it? Why will a ruling in the UK effect the US? The US is soverign forever from the UK we lost our blood for it. Why we getting pushed around? lol That's a pain. @googlemail.com is way to long...grrr thanks a lot big rich company for not appealing.

You should read the article he linked to its interesting. Were talking about the legal rights to a brand name. Gmail was a product by the company in the UK (IIIR) but Google did some shifty work to get the rights to the brand name first. If/when any action is taken in North America my guess is they would stop releasing new e-mails with the extension but current customers would get to keep their @gmail.com accounts. You would see no reference to Gmail on the site and there may even be an announcement from 'corporate'. Nothing to get worried about from a customer standpoint unless of course your concerned about branding legislation and shady corporate going ons  -Jordan

Yeah, when I read the first post, I also understood that it is impossible if noone could send me email to @gmail.com with my username, it would in fact be something terrible, all the accounts wouldn't work.. If google is so rich, I don't think that it couldn't do anything about a domain. As I remember this is only problems with say gmail.co.uk or gmail.de? and not the domain with .com! This is only an issue for people wanting their country domain, as I understood this, but I read about it years ago..

It might sound serious when we read it like this, but I sincerely doubt that Google will give up easily. Let's not forget that the people in Google have a lot money - and money makes the world go round. They are aware that changing gmail.com to googlemail.com would put off numerous users, and, if I were them, I would make sure that doesn't happen.

Well I think it was only 100 soldiers that the UK were short of at the time..if the ships had landed on time and not got caught up in the bad weather in the atlantic I firmly think that the US of A would still be under our control  And I know the world would be a better place for it

Well I am sure, google is going to have th domain gmail nicely under its hoods. Its sometimes good to show we dont need that, to bring down the price. Nothing is unsaleable, you need to quote rightly. Even if google looses gmail domain, I think I will have to stick with googlemail, since its much much better than any of the contenders. some day, there will be emails generating from computer domains rather than internet domain. The domain of Peer 2 Peer Connection. I have been thinking a lot on. Say you can just email from your computer and receive on your computer, you are given a dynamically assigned domain, which you can get free. Its just my imagination..

Change to @Googlemail.com ?? Oh.... I hope not. Gmail is shorter and easier to be remembered and typed. However, my friends won't know that perhaps. And send to the wrong email address.

QUOTE(xayarii @ Dec 17 2007, 12:35 AM) They better not change it to googlemail. I like the abbreviation, nice and easy. Don't worry. This is a rather old post. At the beginning, people were afraid because of this problem. But almost nobody had is gmail address changed. Probably, in the states where there was a problematic situation, newly registered people had got their new accounts with the googlemail name. However, the currently users have no problems, and probably no new registration in "standard" countries have this problem.

Their doing 5gb huh? Funny thing I think is that my hotmail account I have had for about 5 years or more now, has only just clocked over to the new system from the old one, today actually. I actually like some of the older interface better, it seems more cluttered now and Vista looking (very ugly just like Windows Live Messenger).
