I use my gmail account primarily for google alerts, and for other "sign up here to recieve our newsletter" type services, so I only check the account infrequently.
Just looked today and there are 791 items of spam in the last month (it clears out stuff older than one month)
Now Gmail has caught and identified all of these as spam (and it gets most items of spam, which is great), BUT, what if there is a genuine email in that lot?
No way I'm going through that much email to check for legitimate stuff.
One good reason not to use gmail as your only and main email address I guess.
