Indiatimes Email FAQ

Need to import all my mails to my gmail account. Damn, need to change my default mail id in many places too.
 
They will be missed. They gave me my shortest email-id though their email interface was not up to the mark. Thanks for updating.
 
My first email ID was from Indiatimes... but always hated their clumsy and non-user-friendly interface
 
Even my first mail id were with them.And also their service was speed as a thunder whereas hotmail used to take ages to load.
Will be missed surely.
 
gmail does not support importing through imap. ended up downloading thunderbird. need to download 1500+ emails as backup :(
 
Around 10+ years back when i had new internet connection, i had created my new email at indiatimes and at some 7-8 different domains like hotmail, yahoo etc. Because i thought we need to have a different email id for each domain and everyone did the same. Noob days.
