Googles GMail is present the walhalla for who webmail uses: a mega-mailbox of 1 gigabyte that really supersnel reacts, with free of charge good antispamfilter and the searchfunctionaliteit of Google. Unfortunately is GMail yet in test phase and must you thus wait till you of a GMail-user an invitation sent gets to may also such mailbox make. Only for that can you now already by Walla correct!
“We thought to it the raise limit for our Walla-users to raise to 100 megabytes yet for Google with GMail came”, says Erez Philosoph, the CEO of the Isralische portaalsite Walla Communications. “Then we the of their webmail learnt, thought we: that can we also”. Concretely you can get by Walla an e-mailbox of 1 GB with antivirus and spamfilter. Users can mails with a size until 10 megabyte receive. Also a missing position is person present, but it is not clear which technology Walla for that uses. For an extra large mailbox, you need besides no Hebrew or Arabic to can: Walla is usual in the English available.
Although GMail currently all media-attention gets, and until now closed in size not yet through competitors knocked became (about that not in a free variant), hopes Walla really Google to exceed. WallaMail plays especially in on extra multimediafunctions, as support for videomovies, digital photographs make up and an own for e-mails. “GMail currently yet awful tekstueel is and basic. We find that users in the broad tie era more plezier at their e-mails must experience”, declares Philosoph.
WallaMail has already more than 1 million users, that their mailbox the coming days till 1GB expanded see. The business behind of the worldly first gigabyte-webmail hopes to earn the investments back through directed advertisements to place.

Google do not uses hits to place a similar recognitions system advertisements, but at the text of the e-mails. Who want Walla without the advertisements, pays 14.99 dollars per year.
