Last month, Google announced an & quot; Infinity+1& quot; The storage expansion plan increases GMail's capacity by 1 MB per user per hour. This is a significant increase in mailbox capacity.

Now,GMail has broken through the 5G capacity (in fact, today saw 4961.164274 MB "November 16, 2007 10:58"), although not so many people can use up so much space, but watching their mailbox an hour bigger 1M is still a very fun thing. In other words, your mailbox will never be full.

Google launched a 1GB mailbox on April Fool's Day 2004, a year before it started its first storage acceleration program, but this is the first time it has accelerated on such a large scale.

Its biggest rivals, Microsoft Hotmail and Yahoo Mail, do not have a similar expansion plan, but in August this year, Microsoft offered Hotmail users 5GB of capacity.
