Using Gmail
My wife uses Word and she uses Gmail (the web interface). Is there any
relatively simple way to let her email documents from Word using Gmail? I don't fancy teaching her to use Outlook just for this one purpose. |

No. You need to use Windows Mail (or Outlook Express or Outlook) as your
default email editor and set it up to automatically collect (synchronise) GMAIL email (which Google explains how to do). Then you can email directly from Word. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "GB" wrote in message ... GB wrote: My wife uses Word and she uses Gmail (the web interface).

All the Notifier does is to allow you to tell if you have new mail with an
icon in your system tray. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "GB" wrote in message ...

Don't have to use Outlook - Mozilla Thunderbird will read and send GMail, as will Outlook Express/Windows Mail...all of which are not as complicated as Outlook.... |
