Google Mail software impact

Gmail had a huge storage space when it was first launched. The emergence of Gmail forced both free and paid email service providers to increase their letter capacity. For example, shortly after Gmail was launched, a website called Spymac also announced that it would provide 1GB email service.

At the end of 2004, Microsoft increased the mailbox capacity of Hotmail's free users in the United States to 250MB, and the mailbox capacity of paid users to 2GB, but the capacity of Hotmail in other countries and regions did not increase accordingly. However, since some international students found that they could enjoy a larger mailbox earlier by changing their address, others followed suit. This troubled Microsoft, and as a result, it opened the service earlier.
