I have 3 email accounts configured on the iPhone, Gmail, MobileMe and my personal domain. What are the odds of them all going down?
For the record I have never tried to send an email and Gmail has been down.
Many providers give you a free email to use, for example Vodafone give you a Vodafone.net email address you can use for nothing.
