Gmail emails are sent and received on the web page. If you are waiting for an email, you must open a browser window and refresh the page constantly, it can be said that this is the biggest disadvantage of Web mailbox and pop mailbox.
But now Gmail has Gmail notifier, a very small one.ProgramAfter installation, it will enter the system tray and automatically check the new email every few minutes. If there is a new email, the notification like Outlook 2003 will be displayed on the desktop, after clicking, you can directly call the browser to open your mailbox.
Gmail notifier can be downloaded here:Http://toolbar.google.com/gmail-helper/Well, with this, the last advantage of POP mailbox is no longer available for me, and I will be able to completely break away from pop mailbox in the future.
A new thing has been circulating on the internet, gmailfs and Gmail file system. Simply put, it is to map 1 GB of Gmail mailbox space to a local network drive using special software.
Currently, this software can only be used in Linux, and Windows users cannot use it yet. If you are interested in this, you can go to the author's website to see:
