Gmail invites

I gave 45 Gmail invites to Gmail Machine to randomize off - but the site hasn't updated in the past 3 days - and the person's e-mail address was hacked - yadda yadda... So I decided I will post my latest batch of Gmail invites in the comments here. If the Gmail Machine comes back up, I will post more there - since I really like the idea.

Please only take one per person - posting thanks in the comments would be nice too.

I was wondering if you thought there was any truth to the rumor that Yahoo is blocking Gmail invitations through their servers. The reason I am asking is because I went to the GMAIL Machine and won an invitation for Gmail by hitting the 1337 number. I entered my Yahoo email address but never got the invitation. I thought it was odd, but now I am wondering if the rumors might be true. I.m now trying the Gmail Machine again and if I win I will put an alternate email address.
I.ll let you know if it works.

Thanks for offering up all your available GMail invites.

Dang. I missed getting one.

Wednesday, June 23rd 2004

Yes I think that Hotmail/Yahoo are blocking invite. However.... I successfully sent invites to both Hotmail and Yahoo users in the past.

I think the guy running Gmail Machine is just terribly behind.

Thanx m8. I missed to get one but what you are doing is so nice...

The worst thing about Gmail Machine and the way things went down, is that the 45 invites I donated were never claimed. And Google puts a 3 week time limit on claiming the codes. So 45 invites went down the drain.

And nowadays invites are rare (I haven't been given new invites in over 3 weeks)... and I wish I had all those invites back.
