Email ... Means of communication or a warehouse just letters?

I go to gmail ... A few new letters: 3-4 reports on new users, 2 letters with spam, report,. And everything? Yes, I did not think that now my mail is just a repository of letters with passwords and various reports ... And how are you doing with the mail? Do you use it for correspondence with "live" people or only with bots and scripts?

ps. My first habratopic ... the topic is not very, I do not even think there is anything in it ... just want to find out the statistics, and try to be a habop;)
