Slimy Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 :blink: Delay's messages? If you are talking about milliseconds sure.. but I have NEVER seen a delay in Gmail. I send mail from my servers here at work and before I even log into gmail it is there..... The internet isn't an instant world.. gotta give data a few ms to travel.. :p Gmail definitely takes longer to receive messages. I sent an email from hotmail, and my friend took a while to get it. However, I received her gmail message very quickly. Or maybe it is hotmail sending slow, i'm confusing myself :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leddy Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 I have a question - How to delete multi emails, just in one click . You can't delete multiple emails in Gmail with one click either, unless you're emptying your trash. You still need to click on the checkboxes individually, (or click "All"), and then click on the drop down box, and click "Move to Trash". In WLM, you highlight all of the emails you want to delete (using CTRL-click or SHIFT-click) and drag-and-drop them into the Trash. Same way as Outlook. Actually, that means that it takes less clicks to delete multiple emails in WLM than in Gmail. hahaha pwnt. Err... you can lol o_O tsk, learn Gmail, then moan :-P You can't have folders in Gmail. You can't. You really, really, can't. Trust me. You need to learn Gmail all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazysah Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Hm question. How do I check how much space left/used in my Windows Live Mail account? You can't. They are going to be implementing a bar telling you how much space you have used nad have left. They have not done it but they will soon be!

Ajapi Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I like the Windows Live Mail interface better, but I don't see it much anyways...I check my Gmail and Hotmail accounts through Outlook. For some reason, I've never had to pay for my POP3 access for my Hotmail account :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
)-(orus Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I am in the UK and I cannot believe what google has done. We don't get @gmail.com, we get @googlemail.com and that really put me off. I like WLM better because I can drag and drop emails :) But it is still in beta so lets wait and see. As some one else as already said, this is not Google's fault. And its only on NEW registrations, I'm UK and have a @gMail.com account - I was registered quite early on. There is a UK trademark or copyright or something registered against the Gmail name, and so a petition was brought against Google to stop using the name in the UK. The service is still exactly the same service tho. I haven't had the chance to try Live yet tho, how do you register for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
