Shinjikun · Sep 24, 2004, 11:01 PM

Is that 250 MB for free users? That's impressive. I still love Gmail through.

**dj_stick** · Sep 24, 2004, 11:11 PM

i've had an account for many many years....... I still only have 2mb
they accounts going to 250 mb 2 times in the last 6 mouths

i dont care about storage space...it's really not that big of a deal...

i like gmail better because of the interface...but i use it and hotmail about the same amount.

riles9262 · Sep 25, 2004, 01:58 AM

Damn mine's still at 2mb.

EcPercy · Sep 25, 2004, 03:38 AM

Mine is at 2GB....

Chubby_C · Sep 25, 2004, 04:34 AM

still 2 megs for me
whats kinda pissing me off is accounts I have my ISPs, with Rogers Hi-speed and Bell Sympatico High speed. They both send messages that they are upping their limits for my pop3 accounts, but yet I still get bounced message after bounced message. Its not too bad because Bell partnered up with MSN, and Rogers with Yahoo, and now my yahoo email address is fowarded to my rogers account so I can get it with Outlook. To make a long story short I'm glad I have gmail now.

Shapeshifter · Sep 25, 2004, 04:55 AM

its 250mb for paid people right?

my accouant is as old as the hills and its still "90% full" 2mbs

fireball · Sep 25, 2004, 03:48 PM

2mb for me still.

Shinjikun · Sep 25, 2004, 04:15 PM

Nacht · Sep 25, 2004, 04:28 PM

hotmail is still 2 for me

Fatality_ · Sep 25, 2004, 05:31 PM

THILE · Sep 25, 2004, 06:17 PM

By the end of September all hotmail users should be upgraded!
I can’t wait!

Sharkims · Sep 25, 2004, 10:36 PM

GMail > Hotmail....

Robert McClelland · Sep 27, 2004, 01:50 AM

I don't have 250mb in my hotmail yet lol

Shinjikun · Sep 27, 2004, 01:58 AM

Does the 250 MB only apply to new accounts? I still have 2 MB.

Nacht · Sep 27, 2004, 02:08 AM

no, we should be upgraded soon....hopefully

But see this http://www.hardwareheaven.com/other-tech-news/57067-hotmail-wean-users-free-export-tool.html

Looks like it'll be 250Mb, but webmail only, instead of exportable.

~~Crash Override~~ · Sep 30, 2004, 02:42 AM

250MB for the free accounts and 2GB for the Hotmail Extra Storage accounts.

On top of that access to hotmail accounts should still work through Outlook Express.

The issue that was being mentioned above only actually applies to an Outlook not Outlook Express scenario.

Robert McClelland · Sep 30, 2004, 03:19 AM

I think hotmail is lying because I still don't have my 250 yet

lol

thomasabarnes · Sep 30, 2004, 04:09 AM

LOL Robert, I still only have a 2 MB storage, too.

Shinjikun · Sep 30, 2004, 04:30 PM

Same here; still 2 MB.

fireball · Sep 30, 2004, 07:18 PM

Says 'The Server is too busy' when i go to check my emails so hopefully thats a sign.

Oh well....I've still got G-Mail.

GutterPunk · Sep 30, 2004, 07:28 PM
