Here you can learn to utilize the many uses of Gmail
On my Hompage you’ve already discovered how to enable GMail as an online storage department.
Now we’ll dive into: Importing old mail into your new Gmail account, impersonating an e-mail, and turing Gmail into an MP3 player.
MP3 Player:
Turning Gmail into an MP3 player is pretty simple. First you need to have downloaded the Gmail Drive Shell which I mentioned on the Homepage. Once you’ve set that up, all you have to do is set up a label and filter in your Gmail account. Name the label something simple like MP3 or Music. Then set up the filter by clicking create a filter and where it says “Has the words” enter mp3 and check the box “Has attachment”. Now click next and check the box “Apply the label” and choose whatever label you created. Now you can zip MP3 files to your Gmail account and play them through Gmail by just clicking on your label.
Import old mail:
For those of you whom just created their Gmail account (Amie Malin) you can easily transfer your old account contacts and messages into your Gmail account. To import your contacts just click “Import” on the upper-right corner of the contacts page and select a CSV file from your old mail. Now to import your old messages you will need to download one of two apps depending on your old account. If your old account is an Outlook account download Outport from outport.sourceforge.net, or for others download Mark Lyon’s Gmail Loader from www.marklyon.org/gmail/. Once you’ve downloaded these utilities you can simply follow the GUI and it will take you step by step through the process.
Email Impersonator:
Gmail allows its users to send emails with impersonation which makes them look like they came from another address. Pretty useful if you don’t want spam email being sent to your Gmail account. Start by going to settings and click Accounts and go to “Add another email address”, and then enter which ever e-mail address you’d like to use instead. Gmail will send an email to this account in order to verify it’s authenticity. After that you can choose to make that address your default address and whenever you send emails from Gmail it will look like it came from another source.
