I disagree. You must have both your pc and your mobile telephone to login in. If you loose both at the same time your only option is to send an email immediately and change your password from another pc. Then change the mobile number associated with the Gmail account to a friends number until yo

I believe this is correct advice by Andy. I also believe neither Yahoo nor Hotmail actually delete inactive accounts, even if you have not logged in for almost a year or more. In fact, for both services I have logged in after more than a year of inactivity, and gotten in no problem. However,

I think two-step identification simply cuts down on fraud because the fraudster has to be at your PC in order to commit the fraud. Or, he has to have your cell phone with him. But if you PC is compromised (for example, it has a backdoor virus on it that allows the fraudster to use your PC as

My GMail settings have worked seamlessly for years, all of a sudden both the incoming POP or IMAP servers and the outgoing SMTP are down. Called Apple Care as I use my Macbook Pro to connect to my various e-mail boxes through Mail, and they told me GMail had all of their ports down. Anyone know

I think you are talking about different things. Danial talks about using Gmail to retrieve messages from a POP3 server. Zack's reply is about using a CLIENT to download messages from Gmail (as the server). Doesn't apply to Danial's question. Danial, my guess is that the POP3 server is ignoring

FYI, Gmail searches are case-insensitive. No need to search for both "position" and "Position"; either one will also find the other. You can include "-job" as one of your search terms, to exclude messages that have the word "job" in it. Likewise, you can use -myaccount+smart.recrui...@gmail.com
