Woops, did I say something daft? Yes...I get my google mail straight into my
outlook express and my goatmum is through AOL, I get a bit confused, but
Lawrence has just confirmed that! Sorry If I misled you. Christine.

Ah Christine, we both have our messages sent to our own addresses, and not,
in my case at least, through my ISP, as I don't use AOL all the time since I'm
always moving from home to university and back. In Hannah's case, I don't think
her college technicians would be happy if they saw that she subscribed to
mailing lists through her college account! I know other students do, but I
personally prefer that e-mails from mailing lists should go to your own
personal account, since: a) You'll always have that account, and b) they're
rarely business related anyway. So this is why this "recent" feature is very
handy for us two anyway.

Aah, I get all my messages to read on AOL, maybe you wasn't aware
Christopher that it depends on how you set-up as to whether you get your own
messages or not. You can do this on email groups like this or DeafBlindFriends
too, I don't want to have my own messages back, I get too many mails as it is!

Yeah it's quite good actually. Least I can see that my own messages are
going through, as well as read any mail that I missed.

Hi all,
I was reading through the help system of Gmail this morning, and they
told me that for those of us who use pop, if you change the account name field
to "recent:username@xxxxxxxxx" (without quotes, and substituting
username@xxxxxxxxx with your actual username), we can view our own messages!
How cool is that? I'm just reading through my 300 or so now.
