I check it every time I wake up in the morning and I look at it again every ten minutes or so. I wouldn't have to do that but my MSN messenger stopped alerting me every time I get a new email.

Does anybone know how to fix that?

Don't use MSN, that's a good start.

My computer checks my mail for me every 5 minutes. I like having some kind of little applet running nonstop that displays how many new emails you have. Opening a mail program just to check if there's any need to run the mail program is a waste of precious seconds. I don't like popup alerts, because I'd probably miss them, and I get spam approximately 20 times more frequently than real email.

My hotmail one I check pretty much every day, because I'm signed in on MSN Messenger, and my mail email I check maybe one a week or so. No-one ever emails me there anyway, it's just "YOU GOT A PM!!!!" etc etc that it receives.

My hotmail one I probably check around...3 or 4 times a day, because I have more of my important stuf coming in there. But my regular, more public one...maybe once a day, or every 2 days.


:D

Well te junk email filter on MSN Mail helps. Filters it all to the junk email folder and I can delete it all at once.

I have four e-mails adresses. Yahoo I have; musicbrat_0927 ( I made it in 7th grade and need to get rid of it ) that I hardly ever check, meryl_insurance_girl ( I never use that one anymore ), and berserk_nun_yumiko ( I check this one out everyday ).
Then I have my account on Wal*Mart connect ( LadyDreamSprite ) that I check everyday as well but this account will soon be gone as I will be moving in two weeks.

I check my Gmail one everyday and my Yahoo one a few times a week. I have all my "real life" things (emails from professors, friends, employers, etc.) sent to my Gmail account, but I use my yahoo account for all my online stuff.

Checking e-mail? xD Not so often, a few times a week, or when I can be arsed. I should check it more... since on lj whenever I get a comment or a comment reply to a comment I posted I get an email about it (I decided to make this an option just in case someone commented on a post from 6 months ago or just to watch lj spam me up.) xP I think I'll go check my e-mail now. ^^;

I check my Outlook email once or twice a day. More so if I'm waiting for particular emails. My Hotmail is on all day and I check it constantly.

I check my outlook mail as it comes. While at work I have it open all day, incase I get important emails. While at home I leave it open if I'm not playing any games.

No one ever emails me with anything important. MSN says I have 37 new email messages but really it's all that stupid chain mail crap.

I check Loony_BoB at yahoo.com constantly throughout the day, and I have Y! Messenger which alerts me when I get new mail.
I check my @computacenter.com (work) email almost once every two minutes at work because at least 50% of the communication done at work is via email.
I check crikey_moos at yahoo.co.nz about once every month or two, or whenever I sign up for something using it (basically anything I don't want my main email account used on).
Loony_BoB at eyesonff.com redirects to my main email anyways. I don't think I have any others that I really remember aside from dptowns at yahoo.co.nz (or was it .co.uk?) which I only use for business reasons when I can't use my computacenter email (ie, at a PC that isn't secure).

I would check them, but nobody important emails me so it's a waste of time. Once a day.

I check my hotmail every day and usually just when MSN alerts me. I check my Outlook every couple of days cos usually I forget to check it everyday, and there's never usually much interesting there anyway.

I mostly check my email about 5 times a week. My university account about once a week. I only check it once a week mainly because my professors and TAs just email me stuff that I never bother to read.

I check my email about once every other day. Unless I'm expecting something, then more often.

Twice a week? Maybe less... All I get is ". replied to you post in ." or something. Whenever I do get e-mails, it's stuff like "unblock me plz" or a forward with too much 1337. :(

I used to check it everyday, when I used MSN Messenger to connect. But since we got rid of MSN and I don't automatically connect to MSN Messenger when I get on, I check it every few days. But I never get anything important. I put EoFF in my junk e-mail a long time ago.
