How to Store ANY File on Gmail

Note: All files stored on gmail is limited to 20 megabytes.

Now this tutorial is fairly easy.  To those who dont know, Gmail doesnt allow you to upload attatchments that have the .exe extension. However, there is a quick way around this. Login to gmail and create a new draft. When using a draft you can upload any file you want that is limited to 20mb. You cannot send these files but gmail still acts as a storage server. You can have as many 20mb files as you like, as long as they dont surpass your 5.4gb limit.

You can also use a Gmail Drive. This program creates a new dirve on your desktop where you can drag and drop files to it  where they will automatically be uploaded into your email account. “The e-mail appears in your normal Inbox folder, and the file is attached as an e-mail attachment. GMail Drive periodically checks your mail account (using the GMail search function) to see if new files have arrived and to rebuild the directory structures.”
