I personally have more than a dozen email address with each serving a different purpose. I have custom domain email for business and free Gmail for other users. How many do you have?

I have only been active online since 1990. Although I have changed email addresses a few times over the years, I have managed to survive all this time with just one email address at a time. My latest at least since 2009 maybe longer. Due to the activity of my hometown largest employer, businesses in our region have actually had email since the 1960s.

I hardly even use it at all these days. I rarely even get any spam. I only check my email maybe once a week. I still prefer live phone calls or lately text messages.

I have 8 because I use the emails to have access to google drive. So I can upload files there.

So you use all the eight emails to access a single Google drive account or you have many drive accounts?

You are one in a million of those who have used a single email for many years. I see people change emails from time to time. May the they are not knowing what to do with them.

I think i have around seven or probably more. I make use of them for google drive and to organize most of my accounts.

[arunima]

Currently, I have two. One is my gmail and other one is solely for professional purpose, it uses our school's domain. Earlier, I had one with yahoo mail for pretty long time.

I also use them so I wont run out of access to chat gpt. There is data limitation for chatgpt on every email.

Wow, all emails for the chatGPT use so you don't run out of data. I thought one email for friends, one email for family, one for online earnings, etc

[Netherrealmer]

I am Gen Z my friends dont use email. They use zoom, snapchats and chatgroups. Only old people use emails for emailing. I use them to have access for storage, ai, and Youtube

[Jem Smith]

These days 5. One for personal stuff, one for things that are likely to get spam, and a couple that are professional accounts.

Do you often read them everyday or you take time minus reading others and only open when you expect something or signing up?

I check the one I use for job applications every day. There is one that I check only every couple of weeks that is for stuff where I think I will get spam and it's mostly just spam and advertising. The personal one I check every couple of days. There are a couple I rarely use at all any more.

My active emails would be 7 to 8.
However, earlier these were more and some are no longer active.

And if you have Gmail emails that inactive, Google will force you loose them or force you use them. Yesterday I got a notification from a backup about having stayed 8 months without logging in.

[arunima]

Yes, to have multiple gmail accounts, you have to keep visiting them regularly so that they stay active and functional. Google shuts down inactive email accounts.

[nakitakona]

Before I have many dummy email addresses for I was interacting to various earning websites. Each website has a different email name I used to avoid confusion. They're all Gmail.

For business purposes, I maintain two email apps: Gmail and Yahoo Mail.

I find no problem about them. And I'm used to it and comfortable.

[Ofonime]

Frankly speaking I have many emails and I use it for so many purpose so it's not bad for me because am blogging and I do many things with email

[stan358]

I usually do not have more than two emails account. I do not see any reason for having several accounts

It's true but the problem is that for me I lost my password in more than 3 email address I had that was one of the reasons why I have to create new email because I can retrieve the password the phone number I use for verification has lost
