Correct..... and every so often, Google will hand out new invites to those who already have an account to give away.

I'm having some problems with my G-mail. When I get an e-mail that I want to forward to everyone in my address book, I have to manually type in they're addresses. Is there a shortcut to use to avoid all the typing? Mike? And i'm not recieveing alot of the attachments that come with them.

Oh, and I have 6 accounts to give away if anyone is interested. Pm me with your name and e-mail.

Aaron, just click on "Contacts", which will take you to your address book. From there, click on "All Contacts" at the top of the page and then "Select All" at the bottom of that page. Once all contacts are check-marked, click on the "Compose" at the top of the page.

I can't explain why you're not receiving your attachments. Speaking of which... I found a neat little gmail utility that creates a virtual drive ("gdrive") on your PC that, when you drag-and-drop files to it, it creates emails to your gmail account and sends them. Great for those of us that want to quickly and easily transfer files between computers. The 10 MB attachment length that gmail imposes on attachments limits the size of the files you can transfer though. Here's the link:

Hey Ken. That suggestion only seems to work if i'm composing new mail. My problem is when i'm forwarding a message that a friend sent to me.

I ran across this during a GMail search. I kinda had the feeling at first that it was "too good to be true", and is it really a generous offering by Google? Just didn't seem right for some reason. Especially with all of the "free" offers. I'm one of those overly careful surfers I guess. At a gig per account, something will have to pop sooner or later. That's a lot of space. Especially when they're giving them away at the drop of a hat.

I'd suggest being careful too y'alls...

Trust noone (read few) on the Internet these days... if you're smart.

Aaron,

You're right, it doesn't seem like there's any direct way to forward to everyone in you contacts list. Here's a work around though:

Do everything I mentioned in my previous post. This will give you the whole list in the email you're composing. Copy that and paste it into the email you're trying to forward, in the "To:" area.
