GMAIL for Listservs Part One of Three

By using GMAIL to access your listserv accounts, you can save every email sent, providing you with a keyword searchable help database that lives in your archived email stack.  For example, I have 2342 archived emails from an assistive technology listserv called QIAT.  Yes, I can go to the QIAT archives and search, but having it live in your own account and with a familiar interface really wins out.

Note that with GMAIL, you never have to delete, just archive instead.

So whether you are a teacher, doctor, electrician, animator, photographer, chef, or blogger you can have a searchable help archive from all the lists you belong to.

Here is a video about how to archive:

The next installment of this series will cover how to automatically sort your Listserv emails into folders.
