    About the same for me, except I have three for work, 1 on ISP, hotmail and Gmail.
    The three work related boxes are to split different tasks. I use hotmail when I need to give an address on a site and don't want to use my own. Gmail is also used for storing files.

    Sincerely I have about a hundred e-mails. This is ture, I have about a hundred e-mails, most of them are @live.com, @yahoo.com, @gmail.com, @hotmail.com and some of my domains. But in fact I've forgotten the passwords of most. Currently I use only one or two. :)

    Well, thankfully, since I've moved, I use my Gmail for my main account now, since the ISP account I had at my old house is no longer. I've got a yahoo account for website signups or other spam possibilities. Then, the corporate email, which I've lost since I've left my job, but I'll pick another up as soon as I'm employed. Several more, but none that I use.

    5 for me:
    - Work
    - Hotmail: My IM & Spam account. If I sign up for stuff this is the account used.
    - Gmail: All personal stuff
    - 2nd Gmail: Personal business / consulting account
    - ISP (That free one with the service, but I’ve never logged in, but I guess it’s still mine)

    4 Gmail
    Hotmail
    Myrealbox
    Yahoo
    3 of my own domains, multiple addresses on each
    Original Demon dialup mailbox

    For a laugh at work one day we set up a mailbox on Latinmail.com, since we noticed that the domain had been used for spamming us. :oops: We set up an evilspammer mailbox. The fun bit was that the whole site was written in Spanish. We figured out enough to be able to sign up and confirm it. Even managed to send a few messages to colleagues from it, which was a little confusing to them :biggrin. It only died when we got so busy that we didn't get back to it for long enough that it was locked. Of course Google Translate was very helpful :)

    Far too many!

    Yahoo (from the beginning) + many email accounts / forwarders that help me automaticly redirect emails to my main account(s) and backup storage, and also temporary forwarders that can be binned to reduce spam.

    Then there's accounts for things like dyndns, alerts from clients systems, etc.

    and on and on it goes...
