I’m finding myself today again, for the n-th time, emptying my Gmail box. Go figure! [apart from the fact that I might be considered crazy to have gotten to this point]

The people from Google say, “you’ll never have to delete another mail again”. No sh*#??? I have no idea how it got to 2.7 Gb space used already in 1.5 years or whatever, but what annoys me most is that:

  • they don’t offer any option to pay for extra space. Don’t they want my money?
  • I do have to delete mails again. And again. And again… Myth busted!
  • the email clients I could easily use with my own customized email adresses cannot handle in excess of 2Gb of mail. Please contradict me, please…

What can I do? I really don’t want to delete any mails again in my life, and want them all received in one place, 99.5% uptime, and available with mobile access as well.

By the way, did you notice Gmail isn’t working on Romanian mobile phones anymore? Anybody who knows why, please let us know.
