gmail
i forgot, i'm already at netdemocr...@gmail.com i rarely use it because i don't like how they bundle e-mail. Hi Jon, No probs but you need to get a gmail email account which are free www.gmail.com and can send out the invite. If there are any others have some invites left. Also if any of you guys are interested in joining my circle just look out for me, alex.go...@gmail.com ___ http://box535.bluehost.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
Re: Help with Gmail
Hello listit's been quiet, so I thought I'd ask for some help. You'll want a good fast connection for this... Set up the accounts you want to copy from and to for imap. On any old computer using a client like thunderbird set up both accounts with imap access. Copy mails from one account to the other in that client, probably just a single drag/drop operation. ___ http://mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
Help with Gmail
Hello listit's been quiet, so I thought I'd ask for some help. I've offered to help an SCA friend who has a Gmail account. She's moving a bunch of email (over 3000 at last count) in about 75 different labels from her account to another account so that the person taking over her *volunteer* job will have access to the 3000+ emails that have come in during my friend's tenure. On Gmail you can't have two accounts open at once, but I have two different browsers, so I can move back and forth that way. Problem is, I can't move all the email in one label at one time. I have to go in and forward each email separately to the new account, then go to the new account and re-label them. This is exceptionally tedious for me. I am old, after all. Does anyone know of any easier way to get 3000+ emails in 75 labels over to another account on Gmail? Youse guys are the only computer geeks I know, and my Grandson is only 3 1/2 so he doesn't qualify, yet (he's hot on computers, though, so in about 9 years I'll have close to home help). Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Please remember to speak slowly and directly into the microphone.

I don't know if this will be of *any* help to you, but here's one discussion that came up when I searched gmail help for importing mail from one gmail account to another: http://groups.google.com/group/Gmail-Help-Message-Delivery-en/browse_thread/thread/e03d11d678519a4/165e3b32ff8085d0?lnk=gstqpli=1 It looks a bit involved because you seem to need to have IMAP access with a third-party mail program. IMAP is a kind of mail-communication method; a third-party mail app would be something like Thunderbird from mozilla.org. Might not hurt to see if you can track down a local nerdy kid to work it out. There are also archiving options that might allow email to be transferred from one gmail account to another, but I have no familiarity with those. As a final recourse you could try posting your question to the gmail folks and see if they can point out in a less- painful direction.

IMAP is a kind of mail-communication method; a third-party mail app would be something like Thunderbird from mozilla.org. Yep, AFAIK, right now the only way to easily move/copy emails between Gmail accounts is to use their IMAP interface. Don't let the four letter acronym scare you, the process of setting up IMAP is rather simple and Google has plenty of screenshots in their Help pages to show you how to set it up. You might start here: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=enanswer=75725 Thunderbird is a good choice as it is free, and actually really nice to work with when it comes to IMAP support. It's what I'm using right now, in fact. The configuration process may take a bit of work, but once you get both accounts set up in one Thunderbird you can just Ctrl+A to select every item in a label and then drag and drop to the other label; just like moving files between folders. Just keep in mind it may take a while, particularly for a large amount of emails, but Thunderbird should give you a good idea of its progress and at least you will be able to do other things as it works. -- --Max Battcher-- http://worldmaker.net ___ http://mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
