> transform an email box as a storage and backup place ... and lots of people consider having their life stored there. That might be viable if Google had kept its promise about users never having to delete their emails. As it is, the total capacity (shared with Gdrive) is 15GB, which wouldn't be much of a life. I was one of the first Gmail users outside Google and got to 14.99GB some time ago, just with email. And I delete loads of it. But I don't worry too much about losing Gmail. First, all incoming email is forwarded to an Outlook.com mailbox (which never complains about lack of space). Second, I use my own domain name. As long as I never forget to renew that, I should be OK....
