Yahoo Mail has fancied its 'unlimited storage space' a lot, without actually thinking that users may put that storage space to good use.雅虎郵箱有幻想的'無限的存儲空間'了很多,沒有實際的思想,用戶可以把存儲空間的充分利用。 This is similar to web hosts, who oversell their services, assuming that no customer will use their share of resources completely.這類似於網絡主機,誰吹噓他們的服務,如果沒有客戶會利用其資源的完全共享。
However, I strongly believe that such claims are useless, and in fact, GMail's 5 GB storage space is a lot more realistic.不過,我強烈認為,這種索賠是無用的,事實上,Gmail的5 GB的存儲空間是一個很大的現實。 Label-archive system on GMail trumps any other service's unlimited mail offerings any day (and I'm still on GMail, happily, I might add).標籤歸檔系統在Gmail上勝過任何其他服務的無限郵件產品的任何一天(和我仍然在Gmail,快樂,我可以補充)。
WSJ blog reports華爾街日報博客報告 that they hit the limits of their unlimited email account at Yahoo, and their older mails were invisible.他們擊中了限制其無限雅虎的電子郵件帳戶,他們的舊郵件是無形的。 They stored all their work emails at Yahoo (totalling to 55,000 mails), and also upgraded to their 'Plus' service which costs $19 per year.他們所有的工作儲存在雅虎的電子郵件(合共有55,000郵件),並提高他們的'加'的服務,費用每年19美元。 Yahoo says they will fix it within a month – which, in corporate-speak means they will fix it after a month雅虎表示,他們將修復它在一個月內-這,在全公司發言意味著他們將修復它一個月後 ![]()
What I do not understand is why Yahoo couldn't keep intact just 55,000 mails.我不明白是為什麼雅虎不能原封不動地保留只是55,000郵件。 After compressing (which most mail providers use), 55,000 mails should only be a few GBs in size – quite manageable.壓縮後(其中大部分使用電子郵件服務提供商),55000郵件只應是一個少數金紫荊星章的大小-相當管理。 Maybe they didn't compress it in the first place?也許他們並沒有壓縮它擺在首位? A better answer maybe that their front end couldn't handle it.一個更好的答案也許,他們的前端無法處理它。
This reminds me of ISPs getting in a swamp after offering unlimited internet connections to their consumers who promptly used up the maximum bandwidth with BitTorrent et al.這使我想起我的供應商獲得的沼澤後,提供了無限的互聯網連接,向消費者及時誰用了最大帶寬使用BT等。

Well I think Yahoo had clearly said the unlimited space cannot be used for storing any other things except mails, but now if they cant store mails as well, then its of no use.那麼我認為雅虎已明確表示,無限的空間不能用於存儲任何其他物品,除了電子郵件,但是現在如果他們不能無法保存郵件以及,那麼它沒有用。
