Normally, Gmail takes you back to your Inbox when your delete, archive or mute a conversation. This can be time consuming if you are having to deal with a lot of messages. Auto-Advance will automatically move to the next (or previous) email after performing these actions, allowing you to quickly move through your messages.
You can now delegate email rights to another Gmail user. This can be useful if you want to give email access to your spouse or business associate and also give them access to your Contacts.
Lately, everyone seems to be looking into backingup their inboxes for their online email accounts. While this is important, what would happen if you lost all of your contact information? Here’s how to backup your contacts to your computer from Gmail, Hotmail (Windows Live Mail), and Yahoo! Mail to your computer harddrive.
Expecting an important email from your boss, but it’s time to go home? You can set up Gmail to forward the messages from your important contacts by setting up a filter.
Gmail allows you to insert images into the body of an email message instead of just attaching the image. This makes for a better looking email and prevents the reader from having to open an attachment after opening the email.
The Reply by Chat feature allows you (and your contacts) to converse about an email message that you have sent or received, in real time. An added bonus is that if you have Gmail saving your chat history, the chat will be nested in with the rest of the conversation generated by the message.
While Gmail’s search options do allow you to do basic searches for messages within a date range, it still doesn’t give you absolute control over the date part of the query. You have to select a range that is 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months, 6 months or 1 year from a certain date. Instead, use the basic search box and assign the date range directly from there.
If you utilize the Google Tasks feature, you can easily email your task list to friends or family directly from Gmail.
If you use Google Voice, you probably take advantage of the email notifications when you receive voice mail. Instead of constantly having to go to Google Voice to listen to the message, you can listen to it directly from the notification email while still at Gmail.
Do you receive countless “bad” emails from someone that got your address? Maybe you gave your address to them and now regret it, or maybe they got it via some other method. While Gmail has no block functionality, you can keep these troublesome emails from appearing in your inbox by automatically deleting these emails as they arrive.
What if you’re no longer friends with one of your Google Talk contacts, how do you block them so that you don’t have to keep your status as Invisible? By following these steps, you can take away their option to chat with you without having to keep hiding.
By now, I’m sure that you know that you can send SMS messages using email and the appropriate email address to users of T-Mobile, Verizon, and Sprint, as well as AT&T, Alltel and others. But who wants to rely on email when you can text back and forth without leaving Gmail or having to refresh the page.
