    From their policies:
    Just use a web host for your hosting needs...like the rest of us. ;)

    You will probably need php/mysql eventually anyway.

    I did have a win app that would allow you to connect to you Gmail account as a mapped drive.

    I don't "know" the rules, I just know where to find them. It's easier to look for answers in the TOS and Guidelines than it is to ask here and wait for peoples' opinions.


    Why do you think I live in illinois?! :eek: :p

    I have seen several of these programs around the net.

    Here is one for example:

    I have not tried it but seems to be do what you are trying to do.

    You can use Gmail like that. But I read somewhere that they limit your bandwidth (think it was like 2Gb a week or something)
