Hi, The enclosure to gmails are shown as googles drive storage. So ,i f i delete this would also get deleted. But i will try. I am empyting unwanted gmails with enclosures.
Update:
I have solved this problem. when i click my drive in google it shows 3%. I clicked my drive and found there is takeout folder there.I remembered that i deleted the takeout in the mail. But it has been stored as takeout folder in the drive.
That was it. When trying to save the mail contents, as a separate folder along with the mails, google says it could be done by this takeout and i downloaded and saved. But this could not be opened to see what are the mails saved . I also wrote about this in my previous post for suggestion. I could not decipher what are all inside, and how it is stored. Because variety of items included in gmails.
Somebody suggested firefox thunderbird to download to my pc as a folder. But i could not further proceed and hence deleted the email containing the takeout. but the contents have been copied to google drive. I deleted and my storage size reduced to 1%. This i have written for users of those who may have an idea of storage problem in gmail.
