Email is the oldest thing most people do online, and often the one that causes the most quiet dread: a lifetime of unread messages, uncertainty about which button replies to everyone, and worry about whether the next message is a bill or a scam. It is also the address your bank, your doctor and your family actually use, and the key that resets almost every other account you own, which is exactly why it deserves to be understood properly, not only endured.
Inside this book:
Work out which email service you actually have, and get back in when locked out Read every part of the inbox screen, in both Gmail and Outlook Reply, reply-all and forward, and know which one is about to embarrass you Send photographs and documents that arrive the right way round and the right size Set up folders in Outlook or labels in Gmail, and keep them under control Recognise a scam email using seven concrete tells Unsubscribe from marketing mail properly, and tame the spam folder Clear a decade of backlog in one afternoon, and keep it that way Use email on the phone and the computer without the two disagreeing
The type is set in a genuinely large, 14.5-point size, every setting comes with the way back, and nothing is left in jargon without a plain explanation. It is written for an adult who wants a calm inbox, not a course in computing.
Covers Gmail and Outlook side by side, so it stays useful whichever one you actually use.
