Damn you PAT, for locking up the gmail thread. I was wanting to ask what "gmail" is. I thought you were talking about like, hotmail but you had to be invited to join. Am i close?

Yeah...Gmail is a lot like a Hotmail account but it stores a full gig of messages. WAAAAY more than a Hotmail account. I've got an account that I never use. Go figure.

I use AOL. :shrug: I know nothing outside of AOL!

But thanks for the explanation, that damn closed thread that PAT started was drivin' me nuts!! To top it off, the darn (darn, not damn) mods got to respond even after it was closed.

If I join, will I be cool? :bandit:

Sorry... We do it just to be stupid, not that I need to explain us being stupid to anyone. I don't think anyone here would expect otherwise.:D

You have to get invited? Is this free? The invitational thing sounds so formal. Jeebus!

Yeah...I always thought the "invite only" thing sounded snobby. It's free, though. The only problem is I don't think you can (at least last I checked) connect it like a POP3 account where you could check it with Outlook.

That's fine, I don't use my smartphone for emailing purposes anyway.
Steven, I need computer help. :wave:

I'm pretty sure that it's available w/o an invite now... if not I have like 20 invites if anyone wants an account...

It's a great service... I REALLY like it.

You can setup POP its under the gmail settings.

Can you? I remember when I signed up they hadn't sorted that out yet. I might have to start using mine again.

Yup, under mail settings there is a Forwarding and POP tab. All of the options are under there.
