@Jason2357 @funkajunk I mean that was the initial selling point for Gmail wasn't it? Don't worry about deleting or archiving anything, ever, you can just search for it... Basic file management skills sidelined.
As I said. Works great until it doesn't. In hindsight, Gmail has been extremely reliable for most people, but that wasn't true for some other Google services. I do think a lot of people have probably lost their email because of their password management skills though.
