Things that are wrong with gmail 

1. Google shows you adverts.
2. Google reads your email to decide what adverts to show you.
3. Any misspelling of your address is also a gmail address, so if somebody is trying and failing to reach you, they will not get a bounce message.
4. Your personal private messages are mined for advertising purposes.
5. A lot of messages not meant for you will land in your inbox.
6. Google reads your most personal messages to decide what products to show you.

Message Repetition / in need of revision...

Hi - just some corrections or what I feel is either

a) a non-issue (what shouldn't be attributed to or something being bad)

or b) a repetition

specifically I mean

#2 & #4 are identical.

#5 & #7 are similar / identical

#8 and #10 are identical

#3 = not so valid or worth noting if YOUREMAILCOMPANY OR EMAIL has many users (which is perhaps idea), then you can't say it's bad or expect your misspelling to go to someone else if you did that,.. and of course many will eventually check or contact the person again. So for #3 I think you could save writing that point to promote / make visible the rest

#5 I'm not sure that is true or even a problem, since people are 'problem' if you're looking at it like that... so people say "hey you're that Michael" and you email back no sorry I'm not that famous Michael... otherwise people aren't really going to email you like that and yeah do choose your name wisely so people don't email think you're someone else (that's even if people use email as social media is obviously now prevalent).
