Quoted: A new study by Forrester Consulting commissioned by ShareThis, the sharing network that makes it simple and easy to share any online content, reveals new insights into what different segments share online, including how and when; the obstacles to sharing; and why the data about what people share is increasingly important for advertisers, publishers and marketers.
High level findings:
* Email is still primary channel for sharing -- 69 percent of adults cite email as the primary source of receiving information
* Less than one-third of online adults said they learned about the new content from generally shared content sources such as YouTube, a wiki, or social networking sites
* 64 percent of adults and 60 percent of youth still use the traditional cut and paste method to share a URL or information
o However this is not trackable by publishers, making sharing by email tough to measure
* Though the primary motivation for sharing differs, 81 percent of adults claim that, when cutting and pasting content to share, they share to help others - believing that a person will benefit from the information they share

This means that we do not build up a contact list or history of senders to whom we send mail - so GMail has very little to go on in applying it's spam filtering.
I'd really rather these forwarding accounts do NO spam filtering, and forward everything on to be filtered in the final destination account.

The web mail scene has been dominated by either Gmail, Yahoo! Mail or Windows Hotmail for quite some time now. Although there have been many other web-based email systems who have tried to enter the fray, none has been successful as of yet. So it would seem that GMX Global Mail Exchange may be up to a tough task of getting into the web mail niche.
