This might be a feature which many of Indian users are waiting for. As many people cannot afford for GPRS & many people even don’t know about how to use GPRS. Mobee.in forwards all your emails via SMS to your phone. This service doesn’t requires any GPRS connection which can be used on any mobile phone which supports SMS.

Login was bit time consuming for me, as they sent mobile verification code & password to mobile via SMS. One should have been enough to verify mobile phone, either they could have sent password or verification code. After sign up, it took me 3-4 mins to find out how to change password! I actually went to “My Account” to change password, but it was provided at “Dashboard”.



After sign up it creates an email ID something like yourmobleno@mobee.in. This email ID should be added in “Forwarding Options” of actual email service. Like in gmail, goto “Settings–>Forwarding & POP” & forward your mails to mobee.in email ID. Now mails sent at gmail comes to your mobile via SMS. Mobee.in has filtering options & black list using which you can receive only emails which are important via SMS.

Mobee.in isn’t a completely service, infact it cannot be continued using for free. Upon sign up user gets 20 credits, means can receive 20 emails via SMS. Free account also has limitation of only 10 emails per day. You have to buy more credits to continue using this service. If you get too many emails & an active user of internet, this might not workout. GPRS might come cheap. This service will be useful if you want to track important emails like Job Offerings, Interview replies…etc using filters.

Shift+Del is easy to delete but hard to recover, Is this you have in your mind? Nope, Now there are options to recover deleted mails from outlook.

E-mail snoozing is also possible based on the day of the week. For example, monday@hitmelater.com or friday@hitmelater.com, etc..

“GMail Drive is a Shell Namespace Extension that creates a virtual filesystem around your Google GMail account, allowing you to use GMail as a storage medium.
GMail Drive creates a virtual filesystem on top of your Google GMail account and enables you to save and retrieve files stored on your GMail account directly from inside Windows Explorer. GMail Drive literally adds a new drive to your computer under the My Computer folder, where you can create new folders, copy and drag’n'drop files to.
Ever since Google started to offer users a GMail e-mail account, which includes storage space of a 1000 megabytes, you have had plenty of storage space but not a lot to fill it up with. With GMail Drive you can easily copy files to your GMail account and retrieve them again.When you create a new file using GMail Drive, it generates an e-mail and posts it to your account. The e-mail appears in your normal Inbox folder, and the file is attached as an e-mail attachment. GMail Drive periodically checks your mail account (using the GMail search function) to see if new files have arrived and to rebuild the directory structures. But basically GMail Drive acts as any other hard-drive installed on your computer.You can copy files to and from the GMail Drive folder simply by using drag’n'drop like you’re used to with the normal Explorer folders.
Because the GMail files will clutter up your Inbox folder, you may wish to create a filter in GMail to automatically move the files (prefixed with the GMAILFS letters in the subject) to your archived mail folder.”

Here's how someone who had malicious intent could set you up with a Gmail account and then later hack into your new mailbox and contact list: First, they need a secondary account that isn't a Gmail address.

A Yahoo or Hotmail address would work fine. Now, when they generate an invitation for you, they type in your first and last name, but their email address.

The invitation is sent to them and they forward it along to you, cut and paste it into a friendly response to your request ("Try this link for an account:") or even just redirect the message so it appears to have come directly from Gmail. But what's different now is that the secondary email address is theirs, not your non-Gmail account:





You sign up, fill in the fields indicated on the Gmail signup form, leave that without thinking because "heck, it's probably just a referral" or similar, and then use your Gmail account without thinking about it again.

Some time later, when the hacker figures you've used the account enough that you'll have a good address book, lots of mail in your archive, etc. they go to the Gmail signup page and click on "I forgot my password":



They select to have a new password generated and sent to the secondary mail address - which is their email address, not yours - and you're now locked out of your account while they can pretend to be you as much as they'd like.

It's a bit convoluted, but if you are signing up for a Gmail account, make double sure that where it says "Secondary mail" that you have your own address, not someone elses address.

Note that you can also change this once you're logged in to your Gmail account by going to your Google Account Information and clicking on Security Question and Contact Info.

After few issues related to Gmail security that exposed Gmail users to hijack attempts, Google has been consistently taking necessary measures to beef up and tighten the GMail security. Recently, Google has introduced SSL (secure socket layer) feature or secured connection in Gmail.

How to be safe?


This is extremely important especially when you are using internet connection on public area such as airport (WiFi). By enabling this feature, it will effectively encrypt data being sent to and from Gmail, keeping your data safe from being retrieved by unrelated parties. You can enable this feature by clicking on the “settings” tab and scroll down to the bottom where you can see the following option.


Why such connection is not set to be secured by default I hear you ask. One of the reason why Google giving Gmail users an option to choose from is due to the trade off that need to be experienced by users. When secured connection is put in motion the connection will be a little bit sluggish because of the encryption and decryption process.
