Titolo: [OT] Free e-mail account

I'd like to create a new free e-mail account. What servers would you
recommend? Of course, the faster and more reliable the server is, the
bigger the e-mail box is and the less pop-ups and suchlike there are, the
better. If there were a filter for viruses, it would be wonderful.
Thank you.
Bye, FB

 Do u wanna a gmail invite?
Oops, it had already been offered, sorry.
Bedises... shouldn't that be either "Do u wanna gmail invite" or "Do u 
want a gmail invite"? ;-)

A man has dreams of walking with giants,

Before the mortar of his zeal
has a chance to congeal
the cup is dashed from his lips,
the flame is snuffed aborning.

 "Wanna a gmail invite?" is used.
You sure? ;-)
The point is I guess there's an "a" in excess because in this case
"wanna" stands for "want a", so "wanna a" doesn't mean much, imho. 
Either "want a" or "wanna". I might be wrong, of course!

np: John Williams - The Knight Bus

I've never heard that the final a in wanna is an article, but , of
course, just because I've never heard of it, it doesn't mean that it
isn't so.
wanna = want to
gonna = going to
gotta = got to
do you wanna go?  Are you gonna stay?  I gotta know.
So, all three are followed by a verb.  I don't think wanna means "want
a" but of course when you are talking and saying "want a" it sounds
like "wanna".
I'd say that you wanna a gmail invite and do you wanna gmail invite are
both incorrect because in both cases that "wanna" includes the
preosition "to".

 like "wanna".
It does, it does. It's quite common. (Of course 99 times out of 100 it 
stands for "want to", of course).
For "gotta" it's just the same, it that can mean "got a" too...
"I gotta one-way ticket".

 Di certo non significa "Do you want a more salt in it?"...
No, infatti non si dice :-) Si dice "Want more salt in it?"

 Do u wanna a gmail invite?
I understand it's being tested. I need something stable. What does "being
tested" mean? May it be closed or misfunction in the (near) future?
By the way, perhaps I should point out that it shouldn't allow anyone to
find my personal data. I've looked into gmail searching it on... google,
and it would be fine in this respect. If gmail complies with my needs,
then, yes, I'd like to have an invitation. Laz will never read my messages
any more, but you've asked first. Will there be any kind of bond between
you and me? I guess not, but one never knows...
Finally, I'd like to know who on earth gets those invitations. Not that I
want more than one: I'm just curious.

If you knock on my door and I call out "Who is it?", you, as a normal
person, knowing that I would recognize your voice, would say "It's me". If
you said "It is I", I would not be nearly so inclined to let you in.

There used to be a mysterious algorithm once... but now I guess 
everybody has about 50 invites.

You're right , Laz. 'Wanna' = 'want to' (usually) or 'want a' ; as an 
equivalent to just 'want' , it would only be used in a mock-Italian accent : 
'I wanna da big one' ('I want the big one') . Never seen (until now) or 
heard 'wanna a'.

 then, yes, I'd like to have an invitation.
I've just sent you an invite. Feel free to use it and evaluate it ;)
Let me know if you're satisfied with it!:)

 and last name? 
I suppose so:

I guess I would "misrepresent myself" if I said my name is "Bertrand
Robinson" (my name is _not_ Bertrand Robinson). If I fill in my actual
name, will it appear as the sender to the recipients of my gmail e-mails?

Nope, you can customize it later.
Still, I know people who use nicknames in the registering form too... I 
mean they're not going to arrest you, actually they just don't care at 
all I guess.
Good night, and happy Easter.

I learned something new today.  If you ever come across an explanation
of wanna in the sense of "want a" (or gonna or gotta) could you email
it to me?  I'd like to include it in my ESL web page.  Our learners
love stuff like that.  They feel that if they can say "gonna" or
"wanna" they have really mastered the language.  Thanks
Ari

 and last name?
Absolutely not. As a matter of fact I filled in the name field with "Enrico"
and the surname field with "il Pentolaio" and it worked.
Perhaps they thought it was my actual name, but I suppose that you can write
"Topo Gigio" and it'll work just the same.
By the way, if you'd like to have other "g-mail" addresses, you could visit

Yahoo Italia is pretty good, completely free, and in addition you can
use Pop 3 without having to pay a fee. I created an account there
because Yahoo USA requires payment to use Pop 3. Also, 
yahoo.it
permits 10 mb attachments, and has a 250mb mailbox. They also use
Norton Antivirus, and have some other anti-popup features.
