Gmail has enabled new users to bring all of their old mail and contacts over from their old mail sites. All of the major web mail sites are supported in the switch. It can even continue to bring your old mail over for the next 30 days. The ability to switch has always been there, it was just above the average users knowledge level. It is so simple to switch now. In my opinion there is just no need to use anything but Gmail anymore.
