Yes. Obviously, Gmail is still very exclusive if only everybody and their sister has an account. ^_^;

Do you want one? I think everybody with gmail that has posted in this thread (Me included) would be willing to give you an invite.

I hear that Google is actually doubling the storage capacity with their next update of Gmail, and that some limits (like file transfers) are going to be raised.

I don't understand why somebody would need 2 GB of space for their email; I can't even fill up 1. ^_^;

It's nice to have so you don't have to get rid of any emails that you want to keep. Oh, and I have some invites if anybody wants one.

In a press release, they stated that they will be increasing the storage space on a daily basis, with no intention of stopping. So you're looking at virtually unlimited storage space.

... I still delete everything after I read it.

It's a habit, isn't it? :)

I can't figure out how to delete e-mails out of my gmail account. ^_^;

The 'actions' menu at the top, I believe.

We just need to know more people to give these invites too. I tried to get rid of some of mine (I have 50 I think, they keep giving me MORE -_-), but no-one I know wants one.

I'm trying to get all the emails I get from my hotmail accounts somehow forwarded to my gmail account. But there doesn't seem to be an option for that.

As it is, I need to change all my characters emails here to my gmail account. Oy, that'll be a job. :x

Yeah, I just dismissed the whole G-mail thing when it happened and now everyone has an account but me.

The devil horns imply that I'm going to get hurt even if I say "ok" right off

So how do I go about getting an invite again?

Oh well in that case, it's in my profile.. :)

Ok, I'm lost. All you're trying to say is that Google has an email system? Why would that be any different from any other, save for the ungodly space, in which us "Deleters" would not have much of a need for anyhow? Or is there some other neato stuff that is involved?

Wei Wu Wei

Well, rather than have to spend your time going from Inbox to "Sent messages" to follow from one e-mail to the next it organizes all of your e-mails into one nice neat little thing so you don't have to go fishing around for something you think you might have said in a previous e-mail.

It helps if you're the type of person who tends to e-mail other folks about a particular topic for a long time.

I hope I explained that well enough.

Oh, and if pictures are attached to an e-mail, you can see what the pictures are before you decide to download them to your computer. Very handy.

You don't delete. You archive.

The large storage space means that you can send out large-ish attachments, too. I've managed to send out ~10mb files, which is useful when it comes to sending someone .PSDs and the like.

Also, I've had absolutely zero spam so far. I got completely sick of getting 300+ pieces of junk mail a day with my other account.

Just move the e-mail to your trash and then you can delete it from there.

I actually think that the interface is wonderful, for a web-based application. It had a pretty high failure rate here in China (due to the fact that China routinely blocks Google for its own amusement), but you can get around that with proxies and things.

Ah, well, when you put it so eloquently, I kinda like the idea....

I don't have one, and seeing how everyone else has one, I'd like one. (Zasz here.)

If anyone minds throwing me an invite.
