You know, the ones that Outlook uses, over the last 3 years.  Now that I changed to Mac and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Ubuntu.com\">Ubuntu<\/a> I don\u00b4t have access to them.  Also even if I can install this 20 gigas in Thunderbird it would slow everything down so I don\u00b4t work off my laptops anymore but work online.   <\/p>\n<p>In this sense Gmail has changed my computing style.  I don\u00b4t use POP3 the way I used to.  Now Gmail gets all my mail from Fon, filters the Spam and I get the mail from Gmail and after reading it, I erase everything cause I know it\u00b4s in Gmail.  In this way my laptops stay fast.  When I need to search I go to Gmail.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nInterestingly, I also use Gmail to store my spreadsheets, text documents, power point of keynotes, pictures and songs with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.getGspace.com\">Gspace<\/a>, a fantastic Firefox extension that I am involved with that does this.  What I do is I have many Gmail accounts and I have sent all my documents from Microsoft to Google via Gspace.  So if I get a new laptop I don\u00b4t need to worry about not having my &#8220;stuff&#8221; as my &#8220;stuff&#8221; is all in Gmail via POP3 or Gspace.  Moreover for my bookmarks I used Foxmarks another Firefox extension so I don\u00b4t need to transfer favorites or bookmarks anymore.  And this new working style worked great except for pst Files.<\/p>\n<p>While I can use Gmail to store PST files I can\u00b4t open them with Gmail nor with any of the apps in Gspace.  What I need and probably many people need as well is a service that receives all my PST files and converts them to a premium Gmail account or now that Yahoo Mail has gone unlimited that does that in Yahoo.  I dream of being able to have the last 3\/5 years of e mail all in one place and searchable.<\/p>\n<p>What I need at this point is what I tried and failed to do when I started Einsteinet.  Is a web site that when I open it it opens like my desktop and has all my software and all my documents and I just work off a browser.  Google has been slowly and steadily moving in that direction.  Now I need for somebody to tackle the PST to Gmail conversion.<\/p>\n<div id=\"mainphotoarea\"><\/div><div class=\"theme-buttons\"><div class=\"fb-like\" data-href=\"https:\/\/english.martinvarsavsky.net\/?p=742\" data-send=\"false\" data-layout=\"box_count\" data-width=\"71\" data-show-faces=\"false\" data-font=\"arial\" data-locale=\"en_US\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have accumulated around 20 gigas of PST files.
