b.t.w. Gmail-when it first came out- believe it or not offered 300GB to every user...now it is down to 2000 MB.....so it is getting MUCH lower, but with all the users now, I can see why--it requires to much server space and bandwith to give for free!

but at least they're offering decent amounts of space, unlike others, and they keep their adverts much less obvious. Sometimes useful...?

Don't you just love the fact that you're being profiled by google? Apart from that Google are continuing to rule the world...

Did they really offered 300GB when they came in?? I joined gmail some time in June last year. I only remember them offering 1GB to begin with...
Anyhow, yes 2.6 gb is enough for me. I still delete some of my mails to avoid cluttering the inbox. Maybe i'm not yet comfortable with the idea of keeping all mails and using the search box to look up emails...

I'm not sure of how much space it started to offer when it just came in... but, c'mmon, silly boys, 2 GB is quite enough for most of us. I dunno about you all, but I think GMail provides such a fantastic and good quality free mail storage service. So, why not stop complaining about the service?

Please, try to find a better service and that complete as GMail is...

Cheers!!!!

Google Email - Gmail is one of the best free services that one can get on the internet. I think baseballkid782 was simply trying to say that initially Gmail offers 3BG inbox storage. But he failed to say that he is happy or not happy with 2 plus GB he is getting right now. In fact, if he is not happy he can ask Gmail to terminate his email account (just kidding).

I think 2 plus GB is quite enough and its a lot all for free. And how Gmail redefine the way we use email. I think they deserve praise too. Once Gmail came into picture, Yahoo and hotmail and others also have to upgrade their inbox storage capacity which is a very good move Gmail started.

And also I've not heard Gmail offering 3GB in the past as well. I'm quite satisfied with the present one. If one wants more space he can open more accounts.

I know they keep on "counting" up the free space they are offering at gmail, but my emails at gmail keep on going up as well. I now reach 10% of limit, that is 266MB something in my mailbox. As broadband and Multimedia, including 3gp videos taken by cell phones, MPEG-4 movies taken by digital cameras and even DVD recorder are getting more and more popular, 266MB is not at all large. I download 500GB per month, and 266MB is just an insignificant amount. (takes less <10 minutes to download.) The need for bandwidth and free space is going up exponentially, and I really wonder when we will start shouting and screaming for the meager free space we got, as we did shouting at the stupid hotmail (I have stopped using this stupid thing from microsoft). Perhaps, we will all have our SMTP and POP (IMAIL) server some years later and free email will become history.

At 2.6 GB, I have more than enough storage space for my e-mail. I keep most of my messages, but I often delete the ones that are no longer important. Hence, even now I'm still using 0 % of my total storage space to this day.

The space is fine, i dont use gmail because everyone has one. I use Gawab, it has everythin including over 2.5 gb of space and some pop address. Gmail seems quite nice so i dont really know what the problem is unless you knida have over 1000 messages. If things get tight then why don't you just delete what you have, it's easier than complaining. Also remember its free and it's web based to expect too much.
