Email safe and easy

You like me want email easy, safe and simple to remember. Here I gather 10 useful email tips which will make your email more user friendly.

Tip Nº 01. Majority of emails services nowadays are free. So why don’t try them all. I did try hotmail, yahoo, gmail and at present I stick with gmail. I may say that comparatively I like firefox addons for gmail, free POP3 forwarding, filters, color labeling, encryption and google apps.

Tip Nº 02. Make your email easy to associate with you namesurname@username.com; nickname@username.com business@username.com. Emails like paul45tyx@com are hard to associate with your great being.

Tip Nº 03. Subject. Make it attractive to open email. “I got present for you”, “I invite you over for a dinner”, “I read your wonderful post and”, etc. Never lie. Spam emails can do this. We don’t.

Tip Nº 04. When you send email to more people, always used Bcc (BlindCarbon Copy), which hides all the recipients. The received message then shows as sent from nickname@username.com to nickname@username.com.

Tip Nº 05. Yo can create autoresponder in absence which will deliver the message which you set up.

Tip Nº 06. If you need to show video, audio or big archives please use link to external source. It’s much faster to upload files to those shared storages than to your email. Adrive offers 50 Gb free storage online or search for yourself in google.

Tip Nº 07. You can improve safety of your email delivery by:

a) autodestruct message

b) encrypting text messages online hushmail.com

c) encrypting your text with gnu privacy guard encryption online or offline

d) using archiver such as winrar or unzip which can be set to use password protection.

Tip Nº 08. Write short emails. Attention span of majority of us is short. Use drawing or photo prepared for web - few bytes.

Tip Nº 09. If you have several emails accounts you can set up option POP3 forward, so that all incoming messages will be directed towards one preferred email account. Gmail POP3 is free and if you don’t know how to do this by outlook you may as well pay forward america to do it for you.

Tip Nº 10. You can personalize you email by signature.

Small Tips:

* don’t open links inside your message, unless you know the sender. Go to the official website.

* proofread what you wrote. If in doubt grammar check online.
