How many e-mail accounts do you have?

The topic of CLee
http://phpbb.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/vie ... php?t=5960
inspired me to ask this question.
Personaly, I have 3-web based e-mails, which I check almost every day plus 1 which I check sometimes plus 1 don't check because I use it only for spam & registration for different web services, plus 1 shell account. I used to have 2 other shell acounts, but I deleted it, because it was just too much for me...

It really depends on what you mean by how many I have. I admin 2 different domains for roommates. So in theory I've got an "infinite" number of accounts available to me.

I've got 4 that are used on a "regular" basis. I quote that because 2 are collections accounts that I check once every couple of months. One for work, and then I've got my primary account which is a collection account from several other accounts.

I have two main accounts. One anonymous and one with my real name. Hmm, I have 4 others just for offical things like university or my website but I don't include them in my vote as they are more or less decoration.

I have tons of e-mail addresses, but only 6 are checked at least daily.

It's weird, but the one I use to reply to (and be nasty to) spamers and other slime NEVER gets any spam!

Uff! I'm not crazy :D . I 'm not the only one with more than 5 accounts.
Sometimes I had doubts...it's not usual for my non-virtual friends to have more then 2 accounts and when I started my experience with internet I also didn't think I will need more than 72 MB only for e-mail space. And now I have exacly 72 MB plus I used to have 2 accounts in Internet just for storing of files (xdrive.com, jump.es)
