[nabs] Gmail

[Chris Nusbaum]

Hi Michael,

Just curious, what do you find faster about Gmail in Outlook than 
the Web interface? Also, Alicia, I should say that all the 
commands I told you about in my last email are only for the Web 
version of Gmail, not any email client.  If you're using an email 
client that your university uses, just disregard my email.

I don't know anything about the specifics of the e-mail system 
you're using,
but the first question that comes to mind is

Can you use a client with the e-mail system? If so, you could 
avoid the web
interface and use outlook, or the mail features of whatever 
notetaker you
have.  I personally use outlook with gmail and find it much 
faster to access
my mail than if I use the web.  Just my $.02

Hello All,



Here I am with more questions about this dreaded gmail account 
that has been
set up for me by my university.  Help! Help! Help! Are my first 
impressions
of the gmail service.  I am a good computer user and advanced 
JAWS user, but
very frustrated with gmail and how it is used.  Those of you who 
have used
gmail accounts at your university or college, can you please help 
me learn
how to use it? I am trying to learn how to use these services and 
become as
proficient as possible with it in the next 17 days, as classes 
begin on
August 17.  I don't really know where to begin, so I don't really 
have any
specific questions, maybe accept how do you find the email 
messages?



Thanks for any assistance in advance.



Alicia
