if thats on the gmail server, then the same gmail servers /clusters hold
all  other information collateral .. that is CC#, Phones, names. pwds etc
...and when GHhealth comes out your blood type and if you want your SIN#
too..!!

So whats the big deal with the temp folder  at the server end being
unflushed ? Bad practice or a secruity risk.

<"temp folder on the gmail server. I verified an attachment being available
even after being signed out">

.. and then  my primary question would be .. how did you peek into the
gserver cluster ??  could you share that info ?? or is this domain hosting
your talking about ??
