Why can't we register using a Gmail adress? [Answered]

Hi there,

I only have one mail account I usually look on for new mail. The problem is: it is a Gmail account. And for some reason, "The e-mail adress you entered is not allowed to be used". This really annoys me, as I am applying for the MRU, but it is quite an (in my opinion) unnecessary hassle to check my other mail as well, just in case a mass-mail has been spread.

So,

1) Is there any way you could allow Gmail accounts to be used to register at the forums?
2) If not, is there any way you can add Gmail accounts to the mass-mailing list?
3) If not, is there any other way that you know of that I can use to recieve mass-mails onto my Gmail account?

One way is to find an email service provider that has free forwarding service and forward all your mail to Gmail.

Terribly sorry for not noticing that topic.

Could you maybe suggest a free e-mail service that can forward to Gmail? Hotmail won't allow it. I understand if you're too busy, please don't go through too much trouble for me.

I use my ISP email account, if you have one, you can use their services to forward your mails to Gmail.

Unfortunately, I do not have an ISP mail. Would you happen to have any more suggestions?

I don't know of any, sorry.

Too bad, thanks anyway!

Indiatimes has a free mail forwarding service.
