4 Megabytes? Four megabytes? I don't come anywhere near saving all the email that goes thru this machine. Some lists are expired and cleaned up daily. But 4 of my main interests make up for it, the corpus here is north of 15Gb, with some of it dating back to the middle of 2002. 4 megabytes? It boggles my mind that you are being abused like that.
