Now I think 1 or 2 GB is more than enough.
Now what people want is the POP/IMAP.
so we can fully use the GMail with easy and full feature.

And we still can put the email on the server safely because the capacity is very big.

Other things, it look like Gmail have problems in the user name checking, even simple name already taken from loooong time ago. I dont think it all correct.

Sweet. =))))))))))))

If a company is going to one-up everyone else in order to get them to compete or get out of the email business, then I'll gladly accept their generosity. Gmail's filters are great and it's email broken down to its simplest components!

I've been using G-Mail for about 6 months and I find it's great... most of the time. Once in awhile I can not log in, but I am aware that they are working on this and that it is still in beta format. I like it even better now that you can actually edit the text and highliting of text. I unlike others have been deleting most of my email that is just bla bla bla from nephews or buddies, but I try and keep all emails with attachments. It was funny to watch the space trickle up from 1 gig to 2 gigabytes of space last week... me a pal of mine were sending emails back in forth saying I've got 1252 megabytes or I have 1274 now... hehe. I certainly like G-Mail better then Hotmail and there is a whole lot less freakin spam.

This is so true. I also like the fact that people don't have to make their pictures small now to send them to me

Gmail is a really nice email service and as always whatever google does, google does better than anyone. I just hope this is not some easy ploy to gether data on the person using the email account for whatever they want to use it for legal or illegal. What a perfect way for the goverment of some other three letter agency to monitor what you do with email very easily.

But hey I had to say this to keep my tinfoil hat nice and shiny.

Wow, I have the same concern as you do about gmail peering in on my life through email.

Hmm....

I hope they are not doing that, or planning to do that.

That concerns me kind of a lot now.

I think it's time for me to move all of my email to Gmail. I currently use (and just paid for) the $20 per year Yahoo! Mail Plus. I did it because I wanted 2GB of Storage and no ads and no taglines. Now I can get all this with Gmail and it's much faster than Yahoo mail. I don't care about the text ads because they are not annoying. I also like the fact that Google doesn't insert stuff (like taglines) into your email messages.

Go Google :)

i have been using gmail for nearly a year now. Used it for all my mail and have loads of 10mb attachments. And there is no way i'll ever use 2GB+ of space. But who cares we all love gmail !

same here. i have not deleted a single thing yet!

I just wonder why they don't just simply declare that there is no storage limit. Simple - no catch-up game.

Because some idiot would then push the theoretical limit and they'd have to go and re-cap it anyway, thus generating all kinds of bad press and a whole lot of people thinking, 'Yeah, that's what they SAY...but then..look what happened when they tried to tell us we had unlimited storage on gmail...'

That'd be a bad move no matter what. Just keep bumping the limit no-one will reach anyway every time another competitior gets close. No-one gets hurt that way.

That person would be "an idiot"? Why? For calling their marketing bluff?
