  • Never forget an important email, retrieve knowledge stored in the depths of your archive and track every email you send. Nothing falls through the cracks


2. Gmailfs

http://sr71.net/projects/gmailfs

This is a Debian package which allows you to use GMail storage as a filesystem. Needs python-fuse installed to work.

For Ubuntu users, downloading the python script gmailfs.py from the site directly and attempting to run it would most probably fail. They should use install it through Synaptics instead.

Go through the following wiki to learn howto install gmailfs --

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GmailFS

Note : - gmailfs violates the gmail license agreement that "Gmail resources cannot be used by any other interfaces, other than the one provided by Gmail". However, since gmailfs now uses IMAP and IMAP users have to use any other interface other than Gmail, I do not know whether it is still illegal to use gmailfs. But Gmail has every right to deactivate the account using gmailfs.



3.  Gmail Manager

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1320/

The original Gmail notifier for multiple accounts. Allows you to receive new mail notifications along with viewing account details including unread messages, saved drafts, spam messages, labels with new mail, space used, and new mail snippets.

Fastest way to send multiple drafts from gmail

People claim that the fastest way to send multiple email drafts is to use Gmail IMAP with email client like Outlook or Evolution or Thunderbird. But I have found this is not true. Because Thunderbird and Evolution etc. email clients treats the drafts as emails still to be edited. So it is not just simple select all and hit send. Each email draft has to be opened and sent separately. That is a lot of clicks and mouse movements, wasting precious time and energy. I have a better solution which involves minimum keystrokes and mouse usage. Efficiency booster technique for sending emails. If someone is feeling adventurous and want to try it from the Gmail interface itself, here's how to do it in the fastest possible manner. It involves using the mouse once. Select the first draft. Gmail would open a new email box and put the cursor inside the box to write. Press TAB once to go the Send button. Press ENTER to send. Now Gmail sends it and the box is gone but the highlight goes to the last...
