* Users that forward their mail to another account must manually set up forwarding through Google's interface, which retains forwarded messages for at least 30 days in the trash folder. This can cause privacy and security concerns.
* Due to [[w:ITAR|ITAR]] regulations, many students and faculty doing government research are unable to use Google mail services, as they have are not yet been confirmed to be ITAR-compliant.* Gmail uses a non-standard IMAP interface, in which "tags" are used instead of a standard directory structure. This means that when users attempt to delete a message in IMAP, it will actually only remove the tag and will be difficult to find. Actually deleting messages requires moving them to the trash folder, where they will be deleted after 30 days,
* Some users are unhappy that they must use a separate mail password from their PID password.
* Users are limited to 25 GB of storage for their mail and documents, but this is still an improvement over the existing system where mail expired after 30 days.
