Thanks for that Kevin Bernie, is there any chance you could extend the deadline? I have 2 mailboxes to do including our main PR contact one, and that would have to be tomorrow, and I already have a very full schedule for tomorrow.
I guess this means no web access for those accounts? so I have to dedicate a computer for those I also have no idea what the volume of the mailboxes is... I suspect not large, but if they are it could take some time to download the inboxes and sentboxes thanks Sean On Wed, Dec 1, 2010 at 10:57 PM, Kevin Cole <kjc...@dc.sugarlabs.org> wrote: > If you are using Thunderbird, the definitive guide is: > > http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&ctx=mail&answer=75725 > > That will set Thunderbird to read your mail.
