For this and other reasons, I don't use my Gmail account for any sort of long term storage. It's not sometime I own. I could be locked out of it, and lose a lot.I try to keep fewer than 30 emails in there at any given time. When my life is going well and up to date, I make sure to keep it at zero messages.
