I checked my Identities and it seems that it have been a modification by Microsoft.
Which one. the not deleting them now or not deleting them from months back?

There's loads. I know of others in general forums saying they're not getting any emails from ebay and more.

So I may get a few old emails back? No biggie, I can manage that,
It's emails going back months ago. they were supposed to be deleted but they kept hold of them without you knowing until they dump them all back at you.
if that isn't a security issue I don't know what is.

and I get the benefits of:
7GB storage.
Full SSL pop3/SMTP compliance.
Better spam filtering, possibly, although the ntlworld.com system is pretty good.
A stable platform. (Go check those newsgroups again and look at the complaints they had prior to this new system).
it's not full pop3 compliant though.
there's more complaints now than there ever has been?!

All-in-all this is a major improvement in my opinion. I've had a Gmail address for a number of years now, I can't see this being a balls up, aside from the odd migration glitch.
Yeh, it's just niggly things having to add recent: just to make something work.
