Re: GMail effective mail filtering

Phil, At the top of every Gmail text box (while you are composing an email) there is a toggle - Rich formatting (if you are in plain text mode) or Plain text (if you are rich text mode). Glenn. 2009/2/20 laut...@westnet.com.au: Dear WAMUG'ers, Well, after over 7 days of using GMail to filter

Re: GMail effective mail filtering

Hi Glen, Well, it took me quite some time to find the toggle, but I had to use Firefox instead of my Safari 1.3.2. Must say that I'm using OS X 10.3.9 at the moment. So possibly the latest Safari will not have that problem. Whatever, I'm extremely happy with GMail. As usual the best advice is

Re: Laptops

Re: on the scrounge again

Roger, I would appreciate the donation of later model Macs. So far I have placed Macs with a variety of individuals who either do not have the resources to buy a computer or are genuine individuals who are first time users. Some have gone to refugees; women's refuges and students. No

Re: I-tunes

Hi Martin, To use firewire transfer, you need to have started one one the computers in Target mode - that way it just shows up as an external firewire drive on the other machine. For the way you describe, ie to use the iMac to do the work, you need to start the e-mac in target mode. To do that,
