Study says 5 billion e-mails are sent everyday
Recent studies indicate that Internet use has been rapidly increasing all over the world. According to Nielsen-Netratings, there are now about 580 million people worldwide who have Internet access, which is a 3 percent increase from 563 million in the third quarter of 2002. With the increase in Internet use also comes the increase in e-mail use, as almost everybody who has access to Internet has an e-mail account. IDC studies show that Internet users are sending 5 billion e-mails per day or 1.4 trillion e-mail messages per year.

E-mail is becoming quite an indispensable tool of communication that a recent Gallop poll revealed that nearly everyone at work are concerned about receiving e-mails that they are compelled to check their mailboxes everyday, 57 percent of which claimed that they check their inboxes every hour. The unprecedented growth in e-mail dependence is forcing people to look for services that maximize e-mail use and give greater e-mail accessibility.
