Welcome to Gmail A Google approach to math. On the eve of Gmail's one-year birthday, our engineers were toiling away furiously. Notes scribbled all over the walls. Complex calculations on napkins and empty pizza boxes. Millions of M&Ms. The result?... starting today, we're beginning the roll-out of our new and top secret Infinity+1 storage plan. The key features are: Write, don't worry. You want to stop caring about storage. We want to keep giving you more. Today, and beyond. The gift that keeps on giving. 1130.681201 megabytes of storage (and counting) for every user. No complicated equations. No tough algorithms. Just this one graph: [IMAGE: silly graph drawn by a mentally challenged engineer, or a small child] (https://gmail.google.com/gmail/help/images/infinity.gif) Gmail turns 1 today. And we've always loved a good joke. We know we won't reach infinity, but check out what we will do ... [/quote] G'night all... or should I say G'morning... EDIT: Merged two threads about same topics, and generalized the topic title

:angry: PS: Who the bleep changed my thread title? I know I was tired when I posted it, but I recall for sure calling it something about "Google vs. MS/Yahoo Mail" - not some boring single-word title. Yeesh, I feel like an Alan Smithee director or something
