Tired of writing the same mail or viewing the inbox numerous times?
Now comes the "Offline Gmail"
Its cool gmail lab designed by the gmail team.
I got most of the information about this from the gmail blog.
It has been around for a long time but i did not use it for a long time.
Now i use it most of the times, the GUI is like viewing from a mobile device.
When you are online, the google server stores all the inbox to your computer.
So when you are offline, it will fetch the mail which is stored on your computer itself.
Now you will ask what if I want to send a mail?
Its very interesting how google does that,
it will store your mail in outbox.
Constantly the gmail is looking for internet connection.
When it gets one, all the outbox mails are sent and new inbox mail are sent in.
Its just awesome to have this facility because now you need not learn how to use applications like Outlook Express ;)
This is how you can install the offline gmail
1)Click the gear icon in the upper-right -->> select Mail settings.
2)Select the 'Offline' tab -->> select the 'Enable Offline Mail for this computer' radio button. Click save changes.
If you have some downloading problem then you can see this help.
If you are using google chrome then you have nice extension for it.
Here is a nice video about offline gmail that you can look into
Enjoy offline mailing :)
