And have lots of little Gmails running around the house. 49110[/snapback] LOL Also to that, it's got a great, great, powerful, search engine capability for your enitre inox of emails, you'll never have to scrounage around for that hiddent email, if it were hotmail, it'd take FOREVER to find it, and, if you're that tpye of person who likes to do the "hackers" choice, you can even use Gmail asa a "storage box/disc", that's right, it's Called Gmail Drive, what GMail Drive does is basically create a virtual storage device on your PC (Windows). This enables you to access your GMail storage and treat it just like you would a storage device. You can create folders, copy files, extract files, you name it! http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T100 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2005 There are several companies providing 1000MB mailbox, including Gmail, Redriff and etc. I think Gmail is the best. The server is stable, upload speed is decent and there is built in spam protection. However, Gmail is strict about the file type that you can upload. Say, you cannot send an mp3 to your friend or transfer an mdb to somewhere else. You cannot view the raw header of the emails like with some other servers. Its popularity, though, gives a number of advantages. You may have friends who are using Gmail now so the exchange of emails become incredibly fast. You may also use 3rd party programs like GFS and bunker to use Gmail as a network drive. Gmail has not approved such use of their service though and you risk having your account and storage deleted? Also, 10 MB of attachment is still too little for us. A pdf file are often greater then 10MB? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
