Just something in relation to gMail. All emails sent to and from a gMail account are permanently kept on Google's hard drives for their own purposes, whatever they may be. For this reason I won't get a gMail account or send any email to a gMail account. As a result of this permanent record it is reasonable to assume that at a later date hackers may find it an attractive source of email addresses for spam.

Hi wamug,

Does anyone know how to configure Mail.app and/or gmail so that it will download all my emails to two platforms? I have Mail set up to receive from my gmail account on two computers but they only seem to download what the other hasn't (if you know what I mean). I have been playing around with the settings with no luck.

Thanks,
David
