deactivated01032015 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Agree. Although it's almost pointless to have 2 gigs or more space for your inbox, when you can send and receive (from other mails) such a small attachments.

Although it's almost pointless to have 2 gigs or more space for your inbox, when you can send and receive (from other mails) such a small attachments. I dont think so. It's a case of you not having to worry about the space. Gmail was never intended as a file storage mechanism and if storring large files is what you want to do theres other sites that'll meet those needs.

Malisk Posted May 23, 2007 Author Share Posted May 23, 2007 Yeah, I agree that attachment sizes feels more important than whatever they do to storage space. Over 1 GB and I'm not really bothered by it, but larger attachments can often feel useful. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/562385-gmail-doubles-attachment-size-to-20-mb/#findComment-588573886 Share on other sites More sharing options...
