DSP — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 16:15:16 +0000

If you want to know the size of any messages in Gmail as seen in any other email services, you may not be able to get it.

Gmail does not offer this feature and it seems like there are not working on it too.

You can see the attachment size but not the message size.

More often we never want to see the size of the message but we all worried only about the attachment size.

If you want to send inline images you may have to worry about your message size which you cannot see.

Gmail Tips and Tricks – Gmail attachment file types

DSP — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 12:20:37 +0000

Gmail offers easy attachment feature that is very powerful.

When you attach any files, Gmail uploads the files as you compose, unlike yahoo mail you do not need to wait for the attachment page to complete the uploading.

Gmail also restricts few file types just to avoid virus issues.

These includes executable files like .exe. You cannot send these files through Gmail, even if you compress these files into the following format these files are not allowed to send.

.exe with compressed formats like .zip, .tar, .tgz, .taz, .z, .gz

If these files are sent, your email will bounce.

But there is also a way to send a .exe file by compressing it using WinRar. This WinRar application can be found free of cost.

You have 20MB mail attachment option in Gmail.

If you have any question or suggestion, please post a comment.
