Had it not been for the MANY discussions on the subject...I would not have been curious enough to check it out.. by the way I am now also using it!

Folks, I agree that this kind of exchange has nothing to do with genealogy and, for my part, this will be my last voice on the subject. However, Bonnie's question did have to do with genealogy and did not deserve the snippy reply she received from at least one member. In the several years or so that I have belonged to this group, I have probably posted less than 5 times and for good reason. On at least 2 of those times, I have received the same kind of snippy reply that Bonnie received today. Maybe you caught me on a bad day, but for the time being, I have had enough of mean-spirited people. Pauline H. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Thanks Robert, It sounds very interesting and like something I can use. I'll have to try it. I love Google and use it all the time. But I didn't even know GMail existed. Thanks for the tip!

Within it, you can assign different labels to the same email message. It works similarly to Yahoo as Jim Woods described but the difference is that one isn't limited to filing an email in just one location (folder). With the multiple labels, you can search for the email in multiple ways. For example, say there is an email that mentions one of my ancestors with the surname Johnson who lived in Finzel and it also mentions Garrett county. I can add labels "Johnson", "Finzel", and "Garrett County" to that email. Then, whenever I search on "Johnson", the email is part of the result set. Whenever, I search on "Finzel", the same email is part of the result set. Same thing for "Garrett County" searches. One email that shows up in several different search patterns--very nice, in my opinion. Plus, like Yahoo, the email is actually saved on Google's server rather than on my local PC. That way it is available to me wherever I can get internet access. Still, I can print a copy or save a copy as necessary.
