Plan is to have 1GB of e-mail storage which, if you use something like RAR, is enough for at least one Jdorama episode.

:hehe: :hehe: You guys must be reading propaganda leaflets or something, 'cause I ain't makin' what you guys think I must be making salary-wise... And besides, I've got a fat-ass mortgage to deal with... :(

I sure wish I had a piece of that $239M that the guy in Virginia won... That is some serious money... :D

have not been checking this forum frequently...and i read this post...wow, it would be too good to be true. i don't have to delete my old emails (already filling up on the 4mb yahoo account)...:( and i can send dorama episodes to people. spam is a big concern. maybe should only publish this email via another email...:) that way, at least the email should be pretty safe.

*translation: The information I reported earlier is the real deal!

It wasn't an April Fool's joke afterall. I figured so seeing the information came from a reputable news service like CNet.
