Does anyone else here use G-Mail?

The reason I ask is because I am having trouble downloading attachments, anything over about 500kb in size, from my G-Mail account.

When I say 'having trouble', I mean that the attachment downloads fine for the first 500kb, then says it is complete, even though the original file size is much larger. When I try to open the smaller downloaded file, it tells me there is an error (quite obvious really as only a small percentage of the file has been received on my PC)

I searched the net for some answers, but only found a number of people with the same problem as me- no answers though.

It might be of importance that I am on a 56k connection... Firefox is my default browser, but I have the same issues in IE too.

I would really appreciate some help as Keagan has sent me some videos of a Tiger Moth landing at his school, but I can't download them!

Cheers.

nope, must be your 56k modem- i just checked and gmail is working for me. i have similar problems when trying to use youtube on a slow connection- it loads the video part way, then claims it's done when it only loaded one part.

in other news, hotmail is now 1000MB...

Yea, working fine for me.

@Zolty Yep, but gmail has a way better interface.

Well, if I were you Trolly, I'd use your Gmail through outlook express.

The details areHere

It's way quicker and easier than having to start your browser just to check the emails.

its just that i use hotmail for all my mailing lists and the like. so now i don't have to delete them once they come in- i can just leave them
