>I have about 4 or 5 "mindspring" emails, e.g. 1 - for business, 2 - for family, 3 - girlfriends <g> 4 - technical message boards, etc. I was wondering, when I create 4 or 5 GMAIL account names, will GMAIL eventually kick me out (as they can probably trace me by the IP address)?

Just create one and put a plus sign after it for the other ones. For example you could have DLitvak@Gmail.com and also give out DLitvak+fam@gmail.com, DLitvak+gfriend@gmail.com, DLitvak+Tech@gmail.com. They will all get delivered to DLitvak@gmail.com. Create a label for each one then in Gmail go to settings and filters then you can set a filter to apply a label for each account name. Still all shows up in your main inbox but by clicking the label categories on the screens the label only shows the email that applies to that label.
