Is anyone here a #gmail expert? Years ago I set up a client’s email with gmail as the UI for an account on a hosted domain. Now we have changed both the registrar and the host, and I cannot find a way to access the pop/imap setup for the account. Gmail has instructions for sending gmail to another client like outlook, but not for changing the setup on an email account coming in to gmail.

I already have been doing this for years (I have multiple email accounts), although I did not know this was a security tip.

#Google now scans my face before I access my accounts via web (at least on my #iPhone & #iPad).

Uses #AI. Private. Local... I might try this!

My son just got a new phone and #Gmail account. Everything setup just fine. A couple of days later, #Google locked him out ("we've detected unusual activity") and wants a new phone number. None of the ones I'm trying are accepted, even ones tied to other Google accounts (mine, my wife's, etc). What the heck?!

#Apple wants to extend their lead in Email over #Gmail / #Google. It is crazy how half of humanity uses Apple mail (Google only has one third). #WWDC

I remember the days when people were furious Google was scanning their emails to serve ads. Now we’ve reached the point that everything you send and receive is being filtered through its AI model and you’re expected to love it.

20 years ago tomorrow, #Google introduced #Gmail. It was widely assumed at the time to be an April Fool's Day joke.

I remember signing up for #Gmail all those years ago with glee. Back then, #Microsoft email via #hotmail was a hot mess, while #Yahoo email was slightly better—but only in the sense that 💩 is better than 💩 🔛 🔥!!

I am grateful that #Google launched Gmail as it did radically change my life for the better (privacy issues aside).

I know folks will mention #Protonmail (which I have also checked out). I may sign up with the latter later on.

Just got registered with a local GP in Ireland¹ and their first email states that all their staff are “formally trained in GDPR procedures and any information you give will be used in the strictest confidence.”

Their email address is @gmail.com

🤦♂️

¹ This, in and of itself, is a bloody miracle these days, apparently, and only happened because it’s a new practice that’s just opening up.

For everyone who is trying to get out of Google, I have email-accounts with #Posteo, a green-energy powered German company and privacy-focussed Swiss @protonmail. It costs some money. Needless to say, I never used #GoogleDrive for storing important stuff, I do not store any pictures on Google, I am logged out whenever I use Youtube. I de-activated most apps on my phone, only those strictly necessary #ExitGoogle #Google #Gmail
(there are way more radical ways to say no to Google, this is my way)

openDKIMとかMilterとかをyumでインストールしてsendmailと組み合わせる、話をさがしているけどまだ見つからない。buildして、どうこうはあるみたいだけど。環境近い話が欲しいとは思った。

#Gmail でメールが受け取られない件、#SMTP認証 が #SPF だけではだめなのかもしれない、という気がしてきた。#DMRC とか #DKIM とか、必要なのかも。

Spannend, das Registrierungsformular auf https://accounts.bahn.de/ akzeptiert generell keine gmail.com E-Mail-Adressen. Mit googlemail.com funktioniert es. Gerade für Euch getestet.

Problem: Das Registrierungsformular wird nach dem Laden wieder angezeigt. Und man kann es von Neuem ausfüllen.

Since I've seen a lot of chatter about people switching to #Firefox as Google ramps up the enshitification of #Chrome, let me tell you about a killer feature for people who (a) need multiple accounts on the same websites (eg. devs) or specifically (b) have to use multiple Google accounts.

Firefox has an official addon called Multi Account Containers that lets you trivially set up color coded tabs that have separate sets of cookies. Log into your dev account in one, and your test account in another. Log into your personal #gmail in one and have another tab next to it with your work Gmail. I'm actually not signed in to any Google accounts in most my tabs, I just have containers for the specific tasks I do on Google products.

It'll take you 30 seconds to set up.

I'm absolutely stunned that #Gmail keeps allowing crap like this through its spam filters.

Okay this is getting ridiculous now. My own innocuous little domain email (which ironically years ago integrated with Gmail) is still wholesale blocked by every single #Gmail account I email, so within #ProtonMail I have to switch to an alias with a standard ProtonMail email address to get it through. Apart from constantly screaming into the void that people don't use #Google, does anyone have any ideas on sorting this so I can get my emails to go through? #email #emails #Proton #domain

What happens if #Gmail decides only #Chrome users can access it? Well, that's what #Google's new API would do if its new DRM for the #web moves ahead.
