Hello Experts,
Could you please help me free up space in my gmail account.
1. How can I know what emails have heavy attachments so I can erase them?
2. Can the emails be backup for future reference?
3. What is the recommended way to free up space?
Thanks for your help

Do you only access gmail online? If so, install Mozilla Thunderbird and configure your gmail account, make your mail available offline so you can search folders that have attachments. Delete or move to local folders to save space on your gmail account.

just small notice to Sandeep´s comment - remember POP3 will download emails from server so you won´t be able to see it in your gmail anymore (if you do not choose "leave copy of emails on the server" option when configuring client)
>>download via pop
As I'm suggesting to use Thunderbird: set it to use IMAP and everything will stay on the server, you can additionally configure each folder for offline availability.

Thunderbird sets up IMAP for GMail unless you specifically change the setting to POP3.
You can still save them to Local folders, then delete them from GMail, when using IMAP of course... not that different than POP3. I just wish TBird used individual files for emails like Windows Mail did.
