...sometimes we're not pals.
a while ago i started using gmail for most of my e.mail action because i had a problem with, first microsoft entourage, then secondly, mac's client 'mail'....i lost a ton of e.mails that i was kinda hoping to keep...a few friends use gmail because of several features - keep e.mail threads together (great for shauna as she has many work e.mails that go on and on and it keeps them together...), it has an internal chat feature - that i think is ok but not nearly as good as msn messenger, and it shows you when people are on-line - messenger does this as well but, of course, in a different program, and is web based so you can check it from anywhere...some of the downfalls i have found is that it doesn't download your mail to your computer so if you have your laptop with you but have no internet connection you can't look back at mail you may need to reference for numbers or addresses etc. in most e.mail clients you can delete all the old mail you sent and still have the responses to those e.mails in your received mail folder..not as handy as the threading gmail does but, if you delete all your sent e.mails in gmail, the thigs they are attached to go with them...i found this out today....i, once again, lost a whole laod of e.mail due to me not knowing it would do this....
whoa...shauna just e.mailed me with a solution for now to save some of them...she's smart...
anyhow...e.mail thingys drive me crazy.
bye bye.
