The four most annoying things about email

Despite being the most used form of online communication, email has major drawbacks. Since the dawn of spam, email has grown to become both our most used asset as well as our most despised necessity.

And yet, email continues to dominate much of our online lives.

the most annonying thing is spam emails. Gmail has somekind of good filtering rules but yahoo is worst in this regard.
