Well, thanks. My sanity is subject to change without notice. (smile) However, I am hoping to uncerstand the Mac one day. My perspective is a bit different than the rest of the users on this list. I am not a disaffected Windows user who is switching to the Mac. I am a competent windows user who wants to learn the Mac. Thus far, I find it quite a struggle. I believe that this is based on ignorance on my part, part of it is that I simply don't understand how the Mac handles many things. I will not give up, I'm certain that one day it will start to click. -----Original Message----- From: macvoiceover-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:macvoiceover-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Marshall Scott Sent: Thursday, June 25, 2009 3:08 PM To: macvoiceover@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [macvoiceover] Re: Gmail Hi, Richard, I can't speak for the state of your sanity, <grin> but OS X knows about common ISP's and will set up your e-mail automatically.
