I have two.
One from my ISP and the other from Yahoo.
The ISP one is used for family, friends a couple of Yahoo groups I belong to and for here.
The other one is an address I use for my Moderater duties on another un-cat related message board.
I check my ISP one about 3 times a day, but the Yahoo one is check several times a day for reported posts, questions or announcements about the other message board.

Accounts - 5: Home, Work, TCS, and two free throwaways, one of which I have yet to use.

However, the home account is run through a forwarder from DH's domain registry, so we can give out whatever address we want at that domain and they will all get to us. We have it wild-carded, so that a certain chunk of them come to me, and the rest to DH. Great for giving out addresses and being able to keep track of who got what, and also being able to dump one if it gets compromised.

Work I check several times each work day and avoid otherwise. Home and TCS are set up to be checked automatically every 5 minutes, whether I'm there or not. The two throwaways I check when I think about it, which is not frequent at all.

Technically, I have 3 (2 home, 1 school) but really it is only 2 because I have my school e-mail set to automatically forward everything to one of my home e-mails. I check both of my home ones about 3 times a day.

I have 4. I have my Yahoo e-mail address, which I use for internet shopping, 2 with my ISP, one for e-Bay/Paypal and one for family/friends e-mail, and one at work that is used only for work related/hospital business. I check them all several times a day....Yahoo and both ISPs, before work and when I get home. My work e-mail is checked right when I get to work in the morning, and just before I go home, unless I get a day in the coordinator office to do paperwork (then I can check it throughout the day.)

I have 5, work email and home email get checked several times a day. Yahoo pretty much daily too since it pops up when into Messanger. Two Hotmail that I check periodically, mostly to clean out the spam.

I have six thru my WebTV - one being my "main" e-mail address - and the other five I use mainly for storage. I also have my ISP address and a Yahoo account, but can't use them right now b/c the computer's down..


I usually check them just about every day, but not always: it depends upon how hectic the day is..
