Overall, both Outlook and Gmail are quality tools, so, in large part, choosing between them really just comes down to personal preference.
Both are free for personal use. Both offer all the core features that you need for email, including useful features like snooze.
And both offer identical storage (15 GB).
How long do people keep the same email address
Data from the DMA shows that 51% of people now have held the same email address for over 10 years.
Remember that email is still not old, Hotmail only launched 19 years ago. Because of the pain of updating many online accounts there is huge inertia to changing that primary address.
Should you send emails late at night
When emailing people outside of our company, clicking send at midnight is questionable. Common advice is to save the email as a draft, and send it in the morning.
Except we are prone to distraction. Even if we plan to send an email the next day, we’ll probably forget.
What percentage of emails are read
Today, 81% of all emails are now opened and read on mobile devices. Can you guess what your readers do when you send them an email that isn’t optimized for mobile?
They delete it.
Does Mailchimp go to spam
They’ll weigh each factor of the spam you receive or send and add them up to assign a spam score, which helps determine whether a campaign will pass through the filter.
If the score exceeds a certain threshold, your email will get flagged as spam and go straight to the junk folder.

What does BCC mean in email
Remember carbon copies? Cc means carbon copy and Bcc means blind carbon copy. For emailing, you use Cc when you want to copy others publicly, and Bcc when you want to do it privately.
Any recipients on the Bcc line of an email are not visible to others on the email.

Can two people have the same email address
It’s quite impossible for two people to have the same [Microsoft] email address at the same time.
However, the address belonging to an account that has lapsed on account of neglect may be made available to someone else, but not until a year has passed from when it became inactive.
What is a brand contact journey
A customer journey map illustrates all the places and touchpoints customers come into contact with your brand, online or off… and they help you look at your brand, product, and processes through the customer’s lens so that you can visualize the literal customer journey through the funnel.
What happened to Mailchimp
Mailchimp is moving from being an email marketing platform to a full-service marketing platform, so they are also moving away from email based terminology and pricing.
That’s why they have made this change. We can debate the merits of their business strategy all day long.
