Monday, May 17. 2004Gmail as an online backup system
Recently I had opportunity to obtain a Gmail account (thanks James). For those you living under a rock it's the latest fad as far as free e-mail is concerned from the same people who brought us Google. The biggest attraction of Gmail is the 1,000 megabyte storage box and saner(?) monetization model that will rely upon the same text ads you may have seen near Google's search results, rather then big bulky banners and/or popup variations. At this time the system is in beta stage, so to get an account you first must be invited by an existing member, but only some members can invite (I am not one of them, so don't bother asking). While my initial plan for this account was to use it as the handler for mail comming to my @php.net account, which now a days comprises mostly of spam and windows viruses. Rather then have my server perform slow analysis on some 2-3 thousand messages, I'd let Google's Gmail do it for me.
Since most of the e-mail going to that account ended up being removed by spam filters, which seem to be quite good the account ended being rather empty, which seems rather wasteful. So, I've come up with a quick utility to make use of at least a small portion of the available space for backup purposes. To accomplish this task I wrote a small PHP script that can be used to backup files to Gmail and then quickly retrieve them back if and when you need them. I trust that Gmail servers are fairly reliable, and this offers an excellent offsite backup that is extremely fast (I can max out my connection on download 300k/sec) and accessible from anywhere internet is available. Given that you do have 1gig of space quite a few things can be backed up ![]() If you want to try it for yourself here is the script itself: Plain Text Highlighted PHP Source P.S. The script can probably be optimized to run a little faster by removing regex and making cURL use Keep-Alive, but given that most of the time is spent retrieving the file that is not a big concern at the moment.

Nice ideea for a back-up resource...
Question though: How do I get a GMail account? As far as I know there are 2 kinds of account there: invitation senders and "invitees". I haven't had the chanse to contact a "invitation sender" ... Where do I get such information? Thanx.
Great script. I've added a function to return the number of new messages in a gmail account, great for a personal web portal/home page.
Source can be found here: http://tvg.ca/files/gmail.phps Cheers, Tys von Gaza
Hi,
great idea! How to do I run this script? I have php enabled on my site (i run phpbb2), but am just beginning to get into coding php myself. I have included the above script in a page, but when accesssing it via web browser nothing shows up. No erros. Just blank page. thanks for help!
The script offers 2 functions
gmail_fetch_file('login', 'pass', 'filename'); and gmail_send_file('recipient_address', 'sender_address', 'file_to_send'); You use those functions to upload/download files from gmail.
Thanks for your reply Ilia,
I guess I'm just not getting it. Do I type in my gmail info *in* the script directly? If yes, where? I would expect a field to appear in my web browser..... sorry for the noobie questions. thanks.
Yes, you have to put your gmail info in the script directly. You would easily write a script to fill those fields in the function call from a web form though.
Man, u guys going to kill me....but I don't know where to enter the info directly? I see the variables $login, $pass and $file_name, but I don't where to define them.
thanks very much again.
can anyone just provide me an example, to get me started?
much appreciated!
here is an example for the new mail extension I wrote, it is a simpler to show an example for. If you are having trouble with these concepts I suggest you goto http://www.php.net/ and start with some basic tutorials. Best way to learn is to do those, make mistakes and learn from your mistakes.
--- Edit the line in: http://tvg.ca/files/gmail.phps That reads: echo gmail_check_mail('login','pass'); Replace the 'login' with your gmail login name (keep the quotes), and 'pass' with your gmail password (again keep the quotes).
can any1 offer some help as to how i would go about making this work with the binary of curl for windows?
because i'd rather not install apache with php on my machine just for this purpose
Is it just me, or is all the send function spits out "noname.txt" files?
Should'n it be posible to use a standard for with a "search for file dialog" to define $file? If not, then how ... ?
OK, how do I go about getting the various email accounts I own to all dump into gmail? I have both POP3 and HTTP.
Or at least how do I get my gmail account to download into my outlook express on my system? I want to be able to get all my email in the same place...i.e gmail. Thanks!
I am having problems getting this script to work. I put it on my web server and tried to send a file. I used the following:
gmail_send_file('xxx@gmail.com', 'xxx@xxx.edu', 'text.txt'); the other function is commented out and test.txt resides in the same folder as this script. any reason this doesn't work???
It could be that php has not been configured properly with your mail sender. Do a search on PHP's webpage with using the mail funciton, it maybe helpful.
I used your code to write an update of sorts which publishes Gmail inbox statistics as an RSS feed
![]() http://muadib.blogspot.com/2004/06/gmail-rss-feeds-part-2.html
Meh. It barfed on me and submitted as anonymous.
Earlier, I wrote: I wrote an update of sorts which publishes Gmail inbox statistics as an RSS feed ![]() http://muadib.blogspot.com/2004/06/gmail-rss-feeds-part-2.html
Or you could try the online backup service at U.S. Data Trust if you have a Windows-based machine.
I'm sure the GMail folks are going to love this.
Aren't you sure you're not going to get your account closed for violation of the service agreement? Maybe GMail is reliable as a storage, but if there is a risk they can close your account, I'd think it's not that safe, as a backup ![]()
Paul, nice comment spam! I looked at that site and saw that the smallest pricing package is $166/month for 5GB of space. That competes really well with GMail, even if you throw in $5/month for a cheap PHP web host to the GMail cost.
I'm a newbie at this - great script by the way, totally works.
I was wondering if you guys have a JavaScript version of the script. I'm trying to collect all sorts of login forms (gmail, hotmail, etc.) onto 1 HTML page and use that as my start page. But I don't know to achieve the same effect as this php script with JavaScript. Any ideas?
hey whoever wants a gmail invite
It is yours for 5 bux thats all If you want to negotiate i might consider it please email me for further info at mikhaylovmike@gmail.com
Hmm! Anyone who wants a gmail account, email at kyhwana3 at hotmail.com with your (a) name and an email address (not yahoo or hotmail though, they eat the invites) and i'll send you one..
hey I was wondering if anyone could help me. I don't know how to run php scripts but i would like to use this feature. Could someone help me out. Email me at tcrab.1@gmail.com

There is actually a very very cool program that lets you POP and SMTP your Gmail ... works with any POP reader, but the client in windows only for now, i think ...

Geez guys, piss off with the gmail requests. This is discussing a php gmail script not a request form for a gmail account. If you want an account try: http://www.gmailswap.com/
Okay, ik ga ze plaatsen op m'n web-log.

Excellent little functions. I have also added another 2 functions to the list (I'll throw out a link to it later).
function gmail_get_attachments and function DownloadAttachment Basically, what the first function does is retrieve all the available attachments that we have backed up, and lists them on a page as clickable links. Once you click on the link, it retrieves the file, and it pops up the "Save/Open" dialog box in your browser.

Greetings
there is also gmcp (gmail copy). you can find it at http://www.thuglove.org/gmcp
I know I'm sounding like a noob, but could anyone send me a Gmail invitation if you have one left ?
Hey,
I was working on something identical to this using CURL, when I decided just to google the idea first, and of course its been done.. a couple months ago I did something similiar (not as cool or usefull) that lets you use google's image search to find an image based on keywords, then display that as an image, so you could do: and it would give you the i'm feeling lucky match for a boat, which is really useful for dynamic pages when you're too lazy to find an image, I'll post code later.. also working on front end for this.
Hi,
This idea may be expanded to Yahoo (100MB free box) and to MSN (250 MB free box in nearest time). Of course, I don't recommend use it as full backup, but for specific files backup. Let's say You are working for important project. You will not burn every day CD for 10 - 100K files. Other example, use it as common workspace for group work. If somebody can write more widely used than PHP tool?
I added my login and pass, uploaded it to my server, and I still get a blank page. What's wrong? I think it needs a front end too.
Just to note, back on Aug 7 or so, Google changed a few things dealing with the login process, so this script is now broken. I think I have it mostly updated now, I just need to do some more testing to ensure that everything works according to plan. Once done, I'll post a link to the source.
i have a gmail account but can u ellaborate how ur code works..will be of much help..thx.
hey i got a gmail invitation from my friend but some how i cannot activate the site it gave me... everytime i click it, after it loads it either says page cannot be displayed or it directs to incredifind... does this mean the site it gave is fake or does that mean theres somethign with gmails database and stuff... or is there something i have to do before using the invitation.. or is there some buttons or requirements i have to have... please reply
Can anyone tell me what I need to do so I can get my backup script sent via email attachment to my gmail account. I can't seem to get my script attached to my horse so it can buggy it over to my gmail account that I would like to use for storing backups.
Could someody send me Gmail invitation and can I use Outlook Express to retrieve mails from Gmail.
email for your gmail invite, be sure to include your name, current email address.
well since i have gotten gmail i have had difficulty in getting to my account the servere being down. how is this supposed to be great service.

Its been a few months since I heard of google's intention to launch a free email account with 1 GB capacity.... unlike the 2 mb/ 4mb provided by other sites, since i need to be shuttling between places and would not be able to access my work email-id always , a copy of mails marked to gamil account with 1GB capacity could be very useful in accessing information from wherever i am and would also a source of back up whenever my work place mail server is down
but unable to find in google site....how do i register for a gmail account and get one?

I cant get this to work for beans. all I get is a blank screen, Can somebody please point me to a working example. Do I have to have somthing else besides the php code to see something in my browser?
This all looks wicked! now to actually try to get me head round it!
1) How long do you think it will be before we see GWeb... 1 gig of FREE WEBHOSTING!!!! YaY!
2) Cool script... cool idea... Now... can we get someone with some C++ skills to make a small app to do this with nice dialog boxes ? ![]() ![]()
Well, I am a total newbie...
I have a gmail account and I tried your method to gmail into an online backup. Uploaded the php file after inserting the login name and password. When I open it from my server, nothing happens! Its a blank sheet in the browser. What do I do? I have no idea about php and how to use it in this script. BTW, my server is php enabled. Please help me.
If you people read the comments instead of just begging for accounts, you'd read that google has changed the login code, and the script no longer works.
I had rewrote these functions to properly login, but then I found this
http://gmail-lite.sourceforge.net/ Which is a nice library of functions to do alot of things in GMail. In either case, I have created my simplistic file server using the libgmail library and it is now up for download on my site if anyone is interested. http://sqmail.org
This works great, I cant wait for the multiple account addition.
has anyone come accross a script (PHP or other) that would FWD Hotmail/Yahoo etc. to Gmail?
ANYONE can get gmail invites, all you have to do is use it. Upload a 10MB file to your account, send it as an attachment to a few people, hey presto when you click on the inbox link you'll see a 'invite 6 people' message.
Send yourself one, give the rest away, you can do this as many times as you want. You'll get invites out of your ears. In fact here's one: https://gmail.google.com/gmail/a-69f8dc60a6-72fb24fa33-b676eb70af It's no big deal giving them away, mine was free, so here's one to someone else ![]()
"Please tell me how can i got gmail Account any buddy have invitaion of gmail plz give me"
its really not that hard, you can even use a search engine such a google to find sites that will help you get one. www.gmailswap.com is one for starters. Please dont threadjack, this started as a "Gmail as an online backup system" not a how do I get a gmail account.
sorry i forgot to write my email address
Please give me invitaion of GMail @ alvi733@hotmail.com
i wish i knew what the hell is going on when it comes to programing.... am i soposed to substitute something in that thing or ....like copy and paste it somwhere....
Jeez just look at thae last 3 messages..just think what Ilia would be thinking....
Urm. Sorry for the noobie question.
But I am not familiar with php at all. Could someone post a link to an example site to get me started? Thanks so much.
I have tons of gmail invites and I offer free gmail invites in exchange for signing up at http://www.mckiss.com
email after you sign up and you will get the free gmail No sign up, no gmail! cheers!!
hello same one have for me a gmail invitation?
Please send me if it's possible
Gfile beta 1 is here! Upload/Download/Delete and view date/size on this very basic file manger for gmail. URL: http://jossscholten.com/projects/gmail_083104/gfile/default.php or use the link besides my name. Source available soon.
If anyone can send me an invitation to Gmail, please note it here. Would appriciate.
Take care
This was a great thread started by ilia. Thank you for your putting in the time to offer this script. I am sorry that this thread turned into people begging for a gmail account. It is amazing that people are still asking for an account even though there were about three different ways listed to get one. Thank you again for everyone that has worked on this script.
*idioits*.. all(most) of you, complete idiots..
if you start getting defensive at this my point is only further proven...
THE FRONT END IS HERE!!!
Check out Joss's great work at the following site. If your server is PHP enabled all you have to do is copy the source code and add a folder named "temp" to the place you copied the source files. Strip out the everything but "styles.css" from the link lines in default.php and main.php to get a nice table layout. http://jossscholten.com/projects/gmail_083104/gfile/default.php
Also, edit main.php to point to the appropriate temp directory (/tmp/ etc).
Thank you for the awesome script! For the thread trolls seeking Gmail invites email:
inviteme@fastacura.com and hold your breath, and quit requesting in this thread!!
Oh no!
Is there a 2 meg filesize limitation? I have no problem uploading files >2megs with the Joss front end http://jossscholten.com/projects/gmail_083104/gfile/default.php but I get these in error_log [01-Oct-2004 15:00:01] PHP Warning: upload_max_filesize of 2097152 bytes exceeded - file [file=afile.zip] not saved in Unknown on line 0 [01-Oct-2004 15:07:45] PHP Warning: upload_max_filesize of 2097152 bytes exceeded - file [file=myfile.rar] not saved in Unknown on line 0 ![]() Any ideas? I've contact my shared-webhosting provider
Yes, they're is a 2meg upload limit on my server that I haven't had a chance to figure out how to change.. its in the php.ini or something. Gmail has a limit of 10 megs. I'll fix it soon.. GFile 1.0 with massive upgrade of features and such will be out soon. If you need to upload the files, you can just email them to your account for now.. Sorry for the issue.
2mb upload limit fixed, now up to 10 megs - same as max you can put on gmail. Currently putting it under redsign (kind of) adding new features (rename, properties, etc.) Should be out sometime in the week.
Joss does then your package included a custom PHP.ini? My webhosting provider said I'd need on php.ini in the directory of the other files but became hiddeously vague after that. I'll go grab your files now
![]() So your pacage overcomes the two meg limit, or do I get to toy with php.ini some more? cheers
Perhaps in a much more future version there could be a feature to 'chunck' files over N megs using either a standard arcive package so the user could unpack the spanned volume himself, or using some other method that required intervention of GFile to recompose on the fly on download.
N could either be the maximum file size for Gmail OR the current webhost/PHP imposed maxfile size. I tend to make things more complicated than they need be ![]()
what about the funking gmail account guies....If no one send me a gmail invitation i'll fuck u all...
I'll post a sample php.ini later for you all, you only need to change 3 lines, and possibly 1 line in your httpd.conf or .htaccess. If you look at the readme, working on a routine to split and combine files on upload/download is one of my goals. This probably won't be in 1.0 release but it will come soon. 1.0 should be out later this week. Cheers.
I get the following error when trying to upload a file:

Can you briefly sketch the diff between post_ and upload_max? If not no worries. Your php package is a joy! thanks again
Plz can any1 tell me how can i make the script wrk as i dont have ant knowledge 'bout these things
P.S. - Plz provide step by step ins.
Pls send me gmail invitation tempemailspace-test@yahoo.com
Thank you
There should be instructions in the readme file in the zip. But..
1. Download zip. 2. Extract and Upload to server that supports PHP and has the cURL library installed (most that have php will) 3. Goto the site, run, it should work 4. You may need to modify the php.ini file if you want to have bigger upload limits, theres also a sample one of those in there.. Good luck
hi, for those who wants a gmail account. Pls goto
http://www.gmailswap.com/offers/list.php?f=1 and post a request there! Enjoy Folks!
@ Joss
Could you add unicode support to your script? Great system except this!
Is there room to adapt the script to support both Walla and yahoo webmail?
ref: http://www.peer2mail.com/ I prefer the PHP script as it handles downloads gracefully Mega kudos to Joss ![]()
Update: Just to make sure you don't think I've run off on the project, i'm adding some final touches to the next release. It won't include unicode support yet, but look for it soon. The new release includes an upgraded gui, the ability to rename as well as view properties. The css is better, and supports firefox a heck of a lot better (sorry for that to all you all who had to suffer through uncentered div's).. I'm having a couple small issues with some error checking, and school work -- should be released on Friday evening (cst)
@Joss
awesome! Thank you for all your work. Would it be possible to add an upload progress bar to a future version? ![]()
Hurrah! It's here. No it doens't have all the features everyone wanted yet, (including that progress bar for uploads, which is impossibly to do in just php - so i'm not ready to add it and then support everyone's questions yet). It has an improved GUI, bigger work area, better css, properties, rename, delete, etc. The original is still available there if you don't like the new one... tell me what you think.. It's reall late (or breakfast time depending on how you look at it), so I'll post source and updated readme later.
could it be possible to put an operationsystem on that virtual disk? the disk is there , but uploading and downloading seems of no application for me , other then to share some music with friends
feature suggestion:
Have the php upload widget create an image thumbnail on the fly and upload the thumbnail in the same email -- to expedite image preview in the latest GFile version =D
feature suggestion:
- better File deletion options. Perhaps use Gmail filtering from within the GFile interface? - store user options in either cookie or server side file for: -- option to display number of files at a time per page -- show inline thumbnail previews for images (see previoius suggestion) - limit login permission to a server side list of Gmail usernames
.
. critical bug: the BROWSE button appears not to work for the latest official release of mozilla firefox ![]()
Yes, there is definitely a bug with it and Firefox 1.0 which makes it completely unusable. You can not click the Browse or submit buttons. I have traced it down to the CSS used for the DIVs. Removing all CSS to do with #title, #upload, and #login does away with the clicky problem, but ofcourse then everything is out of line.
I will see if I can figure out exactly what is causing the problem and submit a fix.
Furture analysis is reveals that the CSS layout of #refresh is layed over the top of #upload. From what I can see, Mozilla is behaving properly (since you are using absolute position with 100% width on both).
The easiest fix is to change this #header #refresh { position: absolute; bottom: -10px; left: 0px; height: 40px; width: 100%; text-align: right; } to this #header #refresh { position: absolute; bottom: -10px; height: 40px; left: 97%; } Tested in both IE (do people still use such an old browser?) and Mozilla and they both work as expected.
php.ini was never included in the zip.. php.txt IS included in the zip, which you need to rename php.ini (gmail doesn't like .ini's on their servers)
Thanks for your suggestions... I'll look into them.. FF is weird with the submit and browse buttons.. I'll try and fix them.. What do you mean by file deletion options? If gfile still continues to be useful in the future, I'll add a pseudo-folder system using labels to organize files better, as well as a search to find files. Having it upload a thumbnails a good idea.. the script sizes the image now, if you notice you can have the display.php set height and width parameters.. but I'll see about that in the future... As for limiting login permissions, you sound smart, you can add that yourself ![]()
PHP GMAIL DRIVE
![]() Did you see PHP Gmail Drive released under LGPL which shows how Gmail could be an archive. TO download you can go pgd.sourceforge.net and you can see demo on www.rahat-ayub.com/pgd/pgd_0_2_1/ There are some big sized PDF and MP3 files..you can download from Gmail account but exactly same way you do in a FTP server. Take care..
if you would like a gmail account plese send me a email to timbardin@gmail.com
You can use GmailCLipse, a plugin for Eclipse IDE. It's a complete Gmail Client and let's you backup folders and files zipping and splitting if necessary.
For those that are looking programs for using Gmail as online storage, check out Vombato Mail Drive

Nakon početne euforije, stvari oko Gmail-a stižu na svoje mesto. Iako još uvek nije zvanično pušten u rad ko god je to želeo mogao je dobiti poziv (hint: ebay aukcije, ili "get gmail account" na bratskome Google-u). Ja se nisam trudio ali sam razmišljao o tome kako bi se 1GB prostora po nalogu mogao iskoristiti. Ipak, neko me je pretekao... Ovde već pominjani Ilia Alshanetsky, ja na svom blog-u objavio funkcionalan kod koji radi backup&restore proizvoljne datoteke na Gmail. Ograničenje može predstavljati limit po mail-u (ne znam tačno koliko iznosi, ne znam tačno ni da li se to zna) ali princip takođe nije narušen i u tom slučaju datoteku je moguće podeliti u segmente, svaki veličine maksimalne veličine jednog mail-a na Gmail nalogu. Ja nisam razmišljao o backup-u, već o čistom prostoru za skladištenje sa web interfejsom ili čak i lokacijom gde je moguće čuvati podatke (slike, dokumente i sl.) koji se onda skriptom mogu dovlačiti i prikazivati korisniku. Pa onda pedeset naloga x 1GB = 50GB, fin prostor zar ne? Neće li ovo ugroziti P2P mreže za razmenu ilegalnih podataka (mp3, divx,...)? Sa dobrom vezom Gmail servera ka svim ostalim delovima sveta i naravno dobrim protokom, mogućnostima za kategorizaciju i sl. to postaje vrlo funkcionalan web-disk i to čak i bez reklama Samo još da nastane servis koji obezbeđuje razmenu hash-eva preko kojih korisnici mogu preuzimati podatke iz tuđeg inbox-a bez potrebe za znanjem user/pass kombinacije......

Python has a strong showing in this GMail utility list but where is PHP? Right here. Someone developed the idea of using GMail as a storage service and developed a PHP script to implement the system. It is primitive at this point. Just waiting for someone like you to come along and build upon the foundation provided. Are you up to the challenge? Also, a modification was added by Tys von Gaza to allow the PHP script to return the number of new messages in a GMail Inbox.
