A year and a half ago I got a gmail account and decided it was going to be my "permanent" email address. Well, now I've used 71% of the available 2800 megs of space, so "permanent" isn't looking like forever any more. Many of the archived emails have file attachments, both incoming and outgoing, and I don't want to lose them. Is there a tool that can download all the emails that are over 6 months old to my local machine, or transfer them to another gmail account, or do something else to save my "permanent" account from an untimely demise? Thank you!
I remember seeing a tool that does this on LifeHacker awhile ago. I need to personally do this myself just to be safe. So once I hunt around a bit and find the link I'll post it here
wow 71% used . you probably be getting 1000 emails everyday. well i don't have any idea about it .. actually i m also looking for the same.
Well you used more than 2000 MB around. I don't what have in your inbox but this is highest space use by any Gmail user.
i used the gmail drive for sometime, and then i was also facing this similar problem! perhaps downloading the emails will be better. though i guess we won't face much problems, as gmail is always increasing, though at a very slow rate. yahoo is going unlimited, so i hope gmail will also go unlimited someday!
Unlimited storage would be great! I hope Google follows Y! on that. I notice that nothing has come in via GMail in the last 6 hours, not a single email. That's odd.
I own photoretouching company 399 Retouch dot com, and most of our photo transfers occur through email. Client sends me photos for retouching, I send one or more retouched versions back to the client. My All Mail folder shows 9500 emails. Business has been good Perhaps the best bet would be to create a new gmail account for the business. Are there any tips on how to manage two gmail accounts simultaneously?
I get a lot of spam, with 8200 messages currently in the Spam mailbox. However, I think they automatically get deleted. Only about 10 spams / day get through to the Inbox. My back-of-the-envelope calculations show that the amount of email with attachments that I handle would actually add up to roughly 2 gigs in a year and a half. I set up some new GMail addresses yesterday, then did Settings | Accounts and added them to my "permanent" email address, then verified them. I assumed that email sent to the new GMail addresses would appear at my "permanent address" GMail Inbox, but it doesn't...is there some final step needed to make all the incoming GMails appear in one Inbox?
