SCO0119 - Single eMail Inbox for the iPhone and Mac
Struggling with finding the optimum email
solution to use with your iPhone? Do you have
multiple email accounts that you'd like to
process in a single universal inbox? Would you
like to have all your email synchronised and
available from any device and from any location?
If so this weeks show may be for you.
It's my personal journey from traditional POP based email clients through web based solutions to finally a scheme that gives me the flexibility and control to access all my email from anywhere. It's all about IMAP and harnessing the power of IMAP using .Mac Mail to give you the best of all worlds when accessing your mail. But IMAP is just part of the solution. You need to have a way of channelling all your mail into a single inbox.
Even if you're not an iPhone user, the recently expanded .Mac service gives you some huge benefits over more traditional POP or web based solutions.
This week show covers:
Update - As of today (24th October 2007 - a couple of weeks following this shows publication) Google are slowly introducing IMAP support into gmail accounts. This removes the need to forward GMail into .Mac for the IMAP capabilities of .Mac. Of course, if you still want the advanced facilities of .Mac under Leopard. This solution is still valid.
If you're an Extra! member and would like to download the presentations as mentioned in this weeks show, you can download them from this page.
