People often ask me about Outlook and Microsoft Mail in all it’s forms and I always say, “sorry I don’t support any of them, I only support GMail”
- Your past email is on your PC or laptop
- If you have it installed on multiple machines, then your sent mail is in multiple places
- If you upgrade your computer exporting to a new has always been a painful process
- Backing up is not something people remember to do
- Eventually if you keep using Outlook or Mail, or for that matter Mail on a Mac – they will corrupt themselves. People unknowing accumulate 4 DVDs worth of email and wonder why their email no longer works
- Most modern hard disks fail within 3 years
v GMail
- You can see it and reply on ANY device you come across and see all your replies
- Your email is held on 5 different locations in the world
- You can choose to back it up or pay a month fee and get a third party company to do it
- After you have created a GMail email address, GMail can be programmed to collect email from your old email address (up to 3 or so) but if your old email can forward and delete you can have hundreds of old email account coming in
- Number one misconception you cannot use GMail offline, yes you can, there is a plug-in for it; strangely enough called GMail Offline
