Not on your life!your response is ridiculous. more than half of my clients who represent mid sized businesses use a yahoo, hotmail or gmail account. im fact I often email them back from both a yahoo and personal business account in case their spam filters blocks one for some reason.
I'm sorry but I agree with Jerry on this one. Having and using a gmail/yahoo/whatever email address and using it for business purposes says something about yourself. Much like if one worked for an upscale Wall Street firm or law office and came into work in shorts and a tank top as opposed to business casual or even strict suit and tie. And what you are saying to me is that you don't know squat about the product you are peddling. Sometimes this is good, like the clueless car owner that barely gets his car to make it past the garage door - to a shrewd auto mechanic this might be a good day! But mostly WRT head hunters and other employers in the technology field it more often means that they merely insult my intelligence and/or wallet with their offer, IOW a waste of my time. There are many out there who do business right. I'd rather work with/for them. YMMV.
