I've written a guide on how to use Gmail. It's a PDF 2.4 Megs with
pictures of folders.

(I am not spamming in any way here, just wanting people new to Gmail to
learn how to use it, to help out)

Just wondering, what's so great about Gmail anyway? I was offered an invite a
while back and tried it, but I didn't think it was so great; not much different
than the main one I use. Since I get an email address with my ISP that
integrates nicely with Outlook Express, I don't feel I need to manage a second
one. But that's just me.

I am not telling you to get a Gmail. ISP email addresses are great, but
they are not free (you have to pay for internet). But Gmail is new and
creates a better user interface and like of email.

We are entering web 2.0, Google is really using Web 2.0 technology,
they have a ultra-fast and 99% compatible user interface with
JavaScript and AJAX.

Unlike Yahoo it is not HTML based, it has no footer ads and the only
ads you see are the ones when reading email.

If you are happy with your ISP account then that's great. Gmail gives
you over 2.5 GB of storage, of course, 230 messages is 10Megs with is
less than .5% of 2.7Gigs so the space may be a waste because you'll
never use it (you could though).

I can't tell you EVERYTHING that is great about email, I would check
out forums, other guides, and even Google themselves.

Forgot to mention Google also fits into Outlook too. Uses different
ports so read their guide first on using POP access.

I subscribe to and receive many newsletters from a couple of Gmail
accounts which have been very reliable. I can't recall a time when
their mail servers were down preventing me from getting my email.

I get email addresses with my ISP too but I never use them as a
permanent email address in case I want to change my ISP. I've had
email addresses with free pop & smtp access from http://au.yahoo.com
for up to 10 years which have also proved to be reliable. In that time
I've changed ISP several times without having to change my permanent
email address.

That is just another way to look at it.

Did I write www.zecorentec.5220weebs.com?

I must of made a mistake, as it's actually www.zentec.50webs.com

Btw, your spam site in your signature won't last long either...

Also, it's not a spam site
