Great idea, but I doubt it will last. Gmail will soon realise the pattern of everyon having lots of .bin files in their account, and will surely do something about it.

I think it says somewhere that gmail is not to be used for file hosting or something
 
so you need the program to add AND retrieve the files? so i cant open the files on another comp that doesnt have it installed?

<--- too lazy to rtfanything

you could prolly rename the bin file.
 
The idea sounded cool until I thought about it...

Why not just email yourself something that you want to store? Atleast that way you can download it anywhere without special software? Am i missing something here...

well emails have a size limit. maybe this program automatically slits files up and recombines them?

i wouldn't rely on this though cuz google could mess with it

Add the drive to your send to folder and it's MUCH easier to do.
 
Well, if you enter the wrong username/or password when you're setting it up, it gives you absolutely no way to go back and enter a new one, all you can do is get a "bad username/password" message over and over again. This was not ready to be released, even as beta software.

I am also sure that this breaches some contract with the gmail.. but that remains to be seen i guess...
