I've an email from Virgin that tells me that 'Google are making some changes which mean you will no longer be able to use your blueyonder.co.uk email address to log in to any Google services including YouTube, Chrome and Maps.'
So aside from Hotmail, which I don't want, any suggestions from all the techies on here as really I would rather have one email address than several but it seems from this, I will have to  |

I can't see why you'd only want one email address. I have different ones for:-
Internet shopping & travel
Friends & family
Work
Political discussions
Religion / philosophy
Music and other entertainments
Keep them separate and keep control of your life. Otherwise you get too much unwanted mail and it gets in the way.
... And I use one mail agent to access them all, but they are different mailboxes.
It would be useful to have an arrangement like that on my front door so all the flyers about UKIP, mini cabs, pizza delivery, garden services etc go straight into recycling. |

"Gmail?
Or am I missing something? "
No you are not and I did try a long time ago to set one up but they didn't have UK listed or I did it wrong, or just struggled to understand how to do it |

"Google read your gmail emails"

But then you have to remember all the email addresses, what they are for and all the blooming passwords! Or do you use the same password for all of them? |

"I have had a gmail account for a couple of years and I can't fault it. I've never had one single bit of spam. "
Same here they are in general better than a lot of others. |
