Reading the mail I thought this looks familiar and that's because I read it
last Friday.  Either I've just invented time travel or I'm starting to
receive the same mail from Yahoo that I did last week.   Is it just me or
do I have to relive the last 5 days alone.

Yes, I think that they said it would leave WELL over 119TB free on a 120TB
drive ;)

Frightening!
