Gmail Hacks, Tips & Tricks

You already know that Gmail beats all other email providers with i ts endless customization capabilities, Googleproduct integration and fantastic spam filter. Take it to the next level with these Gmail power user tips andGreasemonkey extensions for Firefox. We havent forgotten the Mac users, either. For more great resources,check out the official Gmail blog and the Gmail Power Users group on Google Groups. If you'd like to learnmore about other email programs, check out theemailcategory at the web directory.

1. Master the Gmail keyboard shortcuts

If you havent already, master the shortcut keys. Compose, mark as read, archive and much more with thepress of a button. Sure, you know c forcompose and ! forreport spam, but do you know g + t for the sentmail folder? You can find a complete list at the officialGmail shortcut page.

2. Google Code Macros

The Greasemonkey extension for Firefox, familiar to many power users, allows JavaScript functionality on anyweb page. Piggybacking off of this capability, the generically-named Macros scriptenables a number ofkeyboard shortcuts. Google apparently integrated some of Macros shortcuts when revamping Gmail, but thereare still functions that the Macros programmers believe Gmail needs. I firmly believe this is *the* essentialGmail trick to end all Gmail tricks,writesDavid Chartier at DownloadSquad.

3. Create bookmarklets for frequent searches

This formcreated by Steve Rubel generates a bookmarklet for searches in Gmail. (By the way, a bookmarkletis a baby bookmark that acts a single click tool for a webpage or browserthanks, Wikipedia). Take Rubelsform further by dragging the bookmarklets to your bookmarks bar.

4. Resize your compose box

The aptly-namedResizeable Textarea Firefox extension allows you to click and drag the edge of yourcompose box without resizing your browser window. Note that any browser built with the newestOpensource.org webkitSafari, for examplewill already have this capability. For more browser info, checkout theinternet softwarecategory.

5. View unread messages first

Search on the string label:unread label:inbox to force all of your unread messages to the top of the list, writesMatt Cutts. (Note: you dont have to create any labels for this to work.) Try bookmarking Cuttss search anddragging it to your bookmarks bar to view all unread messages first.

6. Streamline adding attachments

Wouldnt it be great if you could drop attachments directly into the attachment box? Check out the Firefoxextension Dragdropuploadif you are running Firefox 2.0 (as of this writing, it hadnt been updated for2.0.0.12).

7. Quickly switch between Google accounts

If you have multiple Google accountsa Gmail with Google Apps account and a regular Gmail account, forexamplestreamline them with this script for Firefox with Greasemonkey. The script adds a change userdrop-down bar in place of the sign out link.

You can also tryGmail Manager(also a Firefox extension), which adds a Gmail menu bar to the Firefoxwindow. Juggle multiple accounts, sign in and out.

8. Bookmark a single email

As of November 2007, all Gmail messages have dedicated URLs (according to the official Gmail blog). Ratherthan killing a tree by printing the message or laboriously copying down the info, you can CTRL-D (or ?-D) an

important email and refer to it at your leisure.

9. Automate frequently repeated text

Signature functionality is built into Gmail, but frequently typed phrases can be automated with Firefoxextension Signature, which allows you to insert designated text with a keystroke. (As of this writing, Signatureis not yet compliant with Firefox 2.0.0.12.) Also try a Windows app calledAutoHotKeyor Mac app TypeIt4Me.Both apps allow you to create keystrokes to automate text in virtually any application.

10. POP3 & IMAP forwarding

I recommend using IMAP (where the mail is both on the server and on your local machine(s)/device(s)) anduploading all your email onto Gmail, writes Mark Wheeler, a Gmail power user. You can keep copies on theGoogle servers and your desktop/laptop/phone so that they are all efficiently accessible and available anytimeanywhere. Don't have to worry about backups, or disk space...I have 25,000 emails and have only used 9% ofmy space!

To upload old email like my friend did, set up a Gmail IMAP account in your desktop email cl ient. In the client,establish folders that correspond to your Gmail labels, and drag and drop your non-Gmail into the folders. Ifyou're using Outlook with .PST format or Outlook Express, you will have to convert or export the emails tomBox data file format before the messages will translate. The process may take some time, and your clientmay hang. Also, the original dates and times attached to the messages will appear in Gmail as the dates andtimes that the messages were imported into Gmail. But it's worth the trouble to utilize your tricked-out Gmail,right?Click herefor a tutorial from My Digital Life.

11. Mute a conversation

Ever found yourself subscribed to a mailing list and the current conversation has nothing to do with you? If youdont want to unsubscribe, you can easily stop the friendly spam with theGmail mute function. Select amessage in the thread and hit the m key to auto-archive all incoming messages in the conversation. Thethread will stay muted until you unmute it; it will also un-mute itself if your address appears in the To or CCbox.

12. Get it all in one place

Gmails built-in Mail Fetcher allows you to receive and send from up to five different accounts via POP3.Unlike a simple forwarding feature, Mail Fetcher allows synchronizing of your Gmail actions with the homeserver. Go to your Gmail Settings ? Accounts, then Add another mail account. One caveat of sending from

non-Gmail accounts: the recipients may see FROM [email protected] on behalf [email protected],especially if the recipients are using a client like Outlook.

13. Get it all in one place

With the Google Toolbar and Gmail combined, power user Steve Rubel has made his Gmail account into amassive archive of his interests. Steal his trick by adding the Google toolbar to your browser. When youhappen across text or images you want to save, highlight them and click the send to Gmail link. Rubel hasalso tons of other great hints.

14. Secure your email

Work that requires maximum securityor run-of-the-mill paranoiais made easier with this script withGreasemonkey + Firefox. It'll force a secure connection when accessing Gmail. To make sure you're as secureas you can be, check out theinternet securitycategory at the web directory.

15. Don't forget that attachment

If your sent folder is full of "Oops, here's the attachment" messages, this handy reminder Greasemonkey scriptwill scan your messages--including replies and forwards--for references to attachments. (The release notessay that it searches for "attached," "attachment" or certain unknown variations.) If you mention an attachmentand forget to add it, a prompt will pop up.

16. Gmail Notifier for Windows / Google Notifier for Mac

Rather than keeping a browser window open and hitting CTRL-R like you've got OCD, install a widget likeGmail Notifier for WindowsorGoogle Notifier for Macs. It'll check your email (and Google Calendar, if you're aMac user) as compulsively as you do. And as with almost everything else under the sun, there's a Firefoxextensionthat will serve the same function (it's not released by Google).

17. Google Desktop Plug-In for Google Notifier

Some users have reported compatibility issues between Google Toolbar, Google Apps and Google Desktop.Everyone's configuration is different, blah blah blah, so it's impossible to know, but Maxim Alexeyev createdthisGoogle Desktop Plug-In which purports to replace Google Notifier for Google Desktop and Google Toolbarusers.

19. Read your Google Reader RSS feeds in Gmail

Treat your Google Reader RSS feeds the same way you treat old friends with thisGreasemonkey + Firefoxscript. Feeds invading your Gmail will offer more-efficient time-wasting than ever before.

20. Include or exclude Chat from search results

Chat conversations are automatically filed like emails with a Chat label, so to exclude Chat when searching,use the string -label:Chat. Conversely, to search only Chat conversations, use the string +label:Chat. The label: and +label: syntax will work to exclude or include any label in Gmail search results. AnotherJim Barr tip.

21. Use Gmail like an external hard drive

Use up any vegetating space in your Gmail account with thisWindows drive shell extension. Your Gmail spaceappears in My Computer/Windows Explorer as an external drive, and when you drag and drop a file to thedrive, it sends an email to your Gmail account with the file as an attachment. Note that this is a fairly oldprogram but seems to have been updated for the latest Gmail version. Mac users can trygDiskand Linuxusers can check out GmailFS.

22. Spam counter hider

Youre browsing through your (overstuffed) inbox. You have many labels, filters and tricks that ensure that youremail gets to you efficiently. Even so, you look at the number of messages in the spam folder and a smallvoice inside you says, There could be something in the spam folder that doesnt belong there! Forget it.There never is. This Greasemonkey + Firefox script hides the spam count number, so the thought doesnteven cross your mind.

23. Hack Gmails CSS

Stylish is to CSS what Greasemonkey is to JavaScript, says the Firefox extension page forStylish. Cascadethose style sheets yourself, or grab them from userstyles.org. For more web design tips and tricks, check outtheseweb design and developmentresources.

24. Launch one-key composing with Launchy (Windows) or Quicksilver (Mac)

Launchy is a free, open source keyword launcher that runs in your system tray and opens apps withdesignated keystrokes. Launchys still a far cry from Quicksilver for Mac according to Gina Trapani atLifehacker, but Adam Pash of Lifehacker says,I can't recommend it highly enough. Theres a quick tutorial on one-key Gmail composing with Launchyopening a browser logged into Gmail with a compose window with a single keystrokehere.

25. Better Gmail 2 with all-in-one Greasemonkey script

For a one-size-fits-all solution that combines several Greasemonkey scripts into one package, check outBetter Gmail 2, which combines dozens of Greasemonkey scripts into one package.

Cnet strongly recommends the extension intheir review.

26. Create a podcast of your Gmail

Without an iPhone or Blackberry, the morning subway ride can get pretty boring. And you cant navigate asmartphone while drivingor at least, you shouldnt. Create an RSS feed from your Gmail account with thissyntax:https://username:[email protected]/gmail/feed/atomThen sign for a FeedBurneraccount to host and distribute it. Use a RSS to podcast site like AudioDizer.com orone of the many options atNextUp to create text-to-speech files. Voila! This hack is based on a tip from MikeDonaghy. For even more, check out thesepodcastresources.

27. Force mailto: to open with Gmail

The annoyance of prompts from Outlook or Apple Mail with every mailto: link you click can be ended. ThisGreasemonkey scriptforces mailto: scripts to open Gmail. (Note: its unclear whether this script is compliantwith the newest version of Gmail.)

28. Emulate a mail client

For those who cant decide between a full-fledged mail client and browser-based Gmail,SimpleMailstraddlesthe divide with a three-paned mail view. Mac users should note Adam Pash at Lifehacker warns that he hadtrouble getting IMAP to work with Firefox 3 on the Mac, but he doesnt mention testing it with Firefox 2.0.0.12.

Gina Trapani at Lifehackersuggests sorting your Gmail according to the Trusted Trio systemFollow Up, Holdand Archive. To keep the Inbox clear, sort all messages into one of these three categories.

Check out thefull explanation of the TrustedTrio system.

30. Pre-label and sort your mail

Many email providers, including Gmail, allow you to append your address with +somethingfor example, youcan give all of your OS/2 user group buddies your address as [email protected]. (Note that Gmailaddresses are not case sensitive). The incoming emails that wax nostalgic about IBMs late great OS will be

pre-labeled, and you can establish filters to sort them. The +something system also allows you to stop spambefore it starts. If inappropriate emails with a designated +something address, you can kill off the address.Youll also have an inkling how the spam got started. Thanks to Jim Barrfor this tip.
