-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 My experience was the same for my home domain account. I also found that the spam getting through their spam filters went from 400+/day on Yahoo to 4-5/day on Gmail. With no greater incidence of false positives. YMMV... - -PaulK Paul Keser Assoc.

While I have no experience with Google for student email, I’ve used their IMAP services for my personal account as well as their hosted email service for domains and the IMAP experience is very good and works with nearly every IMAP client I’ve thrown at it.
