By the end of 2006, worldwide volume of business e-mail sent will likely reach some 84 billion messages daily. E-mail, in fact, has become an ever-present business communications tool, outweighing traditional paper mail services 75-to-1.
Nearly a quarter of all that corporate e-mail, however, is personal in nature, with nearly two-thirds of workers sending business e-mail from Web-based personal accounts such as MSN, Hotmail, Yahoo! and AOL.
It's easy to see why Web-based e-mail is so popular. It offers access from any Internet-connected computer, frees up hard-drive space, and is handy as a backup business e-mail account. As an added bonus, most Web-based e-mail services are free.
