So i got a 419 scam email from a live.co.uk address and being a good citizen , i decide to report it so that the email account shuts off. On searching through the internet i find that abuse has to be reported to abuse@passport dot com , anyway my email is bounced back.

Microsoft is just helping these scammers if they abuse reporting tools are rejecting emails.I wonder how many people will be scammed just because Microsoft chose not to act responsibly.

While checking my GMail storage quota, I was surprised to see my limit increased to 3.5GB yesterday. Even stranger was the discovery that today it is 3796 MB at the time of writing this post.

To add more the storage limit of my Google Apps account is even greater at 3864 MB!

Seems like Google is true to its word.

Furthermore, we shall keep giving you more space as we are able to.
