About the only example of email in transit being considered storage was a USENET article years ago by someone who considered it a kewl hack that he had some games or something else which was in breach of policy in his account and rumor went around that the admin was having a purge. He tarred, gzipped & uuencoded the lot and emailed it to himself down a _long_ ! fowarding path. It came back to him around 3 days later after the purge. That's the kind of thing I mean when I say you don't consider email storage.
Sometimes you can use this trick to get around storage limitations at your ISP. Often mail in the spool file doesn't get added up for the disk quota. When you hit your limit, just e-mail yourself a bunch of megabyte messages. Sysadmins tend not to like this.
