Re: Gmail Insanity
I just invited over a 100 people last month. I wonder when we will start having to pay for this service?

Re: Gmail Insanity
I understood that if you joined up pryor to going public, which I have, there would not be any charges.

Re: Gmail Insanity
That might be true Gandalph but I always like to remind myself about Credit Card Companies and the like.
They tell you one thing, and six months later they change everything thus invalidating what they told you in the first place.
So don't hold your breath on Google keeping its word.

Re: Gmail Insanity
Nothing you can't make up and nothing, respectively. However, there have been a number of vulnerabilities discovered with Gmail, and there's the nagging privacy issue of them keeping your mail forever. There was also an issue with SE4 save game files being blocked as well, though I haven't tested this in a while. This is in addition to their standard blocking of executables, (even zipped. To arrive unfiltered, executables must be in a rar, or a passworded zip. Renaming doesn't cut it) and some "unknown" files such as SE4's .gam files, which iirc, were also blocked when inside an unpassworded zip.

Re: Gmail Insanity
Actually, renaming does cut it...
I send stuff in ".zip2" format all the time

Re: Gmail Insanity
I was going to say, "Oh, Fyron, you haven't been sleeping again, and you're seeing blurry".
Then I checked my gmail and I somehow magically have 50 invites, too...
Anybody want one?
