What i am doing now that i open a new browser window and open all my email account in its tabs and keep always this window open.
Is there a better way, can you share you experience.

Answer 1

You can use Gmail to manage your emails. Gmail can send & receive emails from other services (like Yahoo,Live or any Pop3 mail). in Gmail just go to settings>Accounts and Imports and start importing your mails.

You can use your original mail to reply emails, also you can tag your emails to organize better

Answer 2

Simply setup each mail service to forward your mail to one primary email address. For example I forward everything to my gmail.

On each mail service, I will try to mark all incoming as read and forward a copy to my main mail services. That way if I ever need to reply from a specific domain I still can.
