Dude! Thanks, it works great, of coarse I haven’t gotten enough gmail

Actually Benson, why don’t you type your email here (or pm it to me), I think the one you have on the forum (in your profile) may be outdated.

i wonder if you could trade files over the google network  
say someone spends the time to attach a 500meg file  
wouldnt it transfer super fast if you just kept forwarding the email to people, and since google has such a fast server, it would be fast downloading the file.

It should work. Right now a friend of mine is in Australia for a year and she is documenting her trip using gmail to store all her pictures. She just gave everyone the addy and password.

Man Benson you suck. I have sent you 4 damn invites now and I am all out again. All of them have been returned mail undeliverable. Get Sven to send you an invite, I am sure he has your CORRECT email address. :bash: :dark:

The problem with the 500mb attachmnet is that most other mail providers won’t support that file size, so it’s great that you can store a gig. but nonone will ever come close to filling it up.

Also, email attachement are based on the upstream speed, which means that even on high speed extreme it will still only hit about 80kb a sec, which means it will take aporx. 110 minutes to attach a 500mb file.

Just a thought.

Welcome to 10 years ago.  
Look up usenet. Works much better because each local ISP hosts the files locally meaning you don’t have to pull it through the whole internet.
