I had the same prob. Free space went down to 6 MB. Then I realized the only app I was using a lot was GDesk - loads and loads of designing. I uninstalled it, and my free space was back to its usual state. I reinstalled it, and everything was normal.

Gary fixed that in the latest version (0.20) tho, so make sure u're using the latest one.

Have you tried the storage wizard? control panel -> device

Its basic but gives you a breakdown of what the space gets used for.

Did u ever send some large files over bluetooth? Sometimes it will be saved to Draft when u failed to send them.

Try using your Storage Wizard first to see if any category was using up your C: space, and then try browsing your C: using Swiss Manager or X-Plore,

Ya I'd have to say most likely the issue is your inbox. Definately check that. Anything with a large attachment could be your problem. 1mb attachments on your pc may be nothing, but on your phone, it'll go fast.

Gdesk im not sure, not using it. However, something you can try is get Swiss Manager Pro, even the free version, it lets you see hidden files and folders on the phone.

Also, when you first switch on the phone, how much free ram do you have, out of curiosity.

Worst comes to almost worst, you can try uninstalling. Even try clearing your entire inbox from your phone, you can just sync it up later.

Worst comes to worst, may be a firmware issue, though I highly doubt it. You can try reflash your phone with SEUS.

Do you have logging enabled for your active sync connection? Maybe thats what is taking all the room

I use swiss manager and have checked the storage wizzard. I have deleted all old mails and dont use g-desk. I have never used BT to transfer something large. I have deleted cache and history in opera. After all that i did get 20MB extra, where the other 110 went i dont know.
On excange sync i use push and sync with calender. If i dont find a sulotion i have to flash the phone.

Thanks for your help.

Have you run a backup recently? Try it - see how large the backup is. If you get a sensible size for the backup you could try a master reset and then restore from the backup.....
