#76 Inbox - Signatures

Hi ya!

It has happened! Signatures have arrived for Google’s product, Inbox!
However, if you have a Send as account, then Signatures won't work. And, signatures on Inbox don't sync across devices.

Managing Signatures in Inbox [Text version]

1. Go to Inbox.
2. Click the three horizontal line menu bar on the top left of the webpage.
3. Scroll all the way down on the menu ‘til you see Settings.
4. Click Settings > a popup appears. Click the category, Signature.
5. From there, there is a button for you to click. It is the On & Off button. To explain what the button does, if it is On, then that means you have signatures enabled. If the button is Off, that means that signatures is disabled.
6. Write your signature. Right now, you can’t add images, special font, etc. Just something simple. Your signature on Inbox and Gmail are different. The one on Gmail won’t carry over to Inbox.
7. Once you’ve written your signature, click Done.

And that is how you work your signature in Inbox!

#73 Inbox - Inbox Forum

Hi ya!

The Google product, Inbox, has gotten so popular that they decided to do the smart thing and create a forum entirely for Inbox questions!

That’s right! As of May 11th, 2015, there is an Inbox Forum!

You can ask any Inbox question at the forum and it will be answered by a knowledgeable Inbox Expert!

Don’t worry, Gmail users! The Gmail Forum is not going anywhere. Google is just separating the two to make it easier on users who have Inbox questions.

And that’s about it!

#38 Gmail - How to Block Someone on Gmail

Hi ya!

Are you receiving emails from an individual that you wish you didn’t receive? You contact him or her and say “Please stop sending me emails!” But the person doesn’t listen!

Do you want to just block the person from sending you emails?

If you do, then this is the blog post for you!

To begin with: You can’t block someone from sending you emails. What you can do is set up a filter system!

Step 1.

Log into your Gmail account.

Step 2.

Find an email from the sender you wish to use the filter on.

Step 3.

Click the drop box to the right of the person’s name.

Step 4.

Select Filter messages like this.

Step 5.

Type in the specifications for the email messages you would like to stop receiving.

Step 6.

Click Create filter with this search.

Step 7.

Click Create filter.

If you want to remove all existing messages from that person, click the box next to Create filter named Also apply filter to matching conversations.

Also, make sure that you click the Delete it button too. Otherwise, you'll just create a blank filter which will archive nothing.

And that is how you block someone on Gmail!

To Summarize:

• Log into your Gmail account
• Find an email from a sender whose messages you want  to filter
• Click the drop box to the right of the person’s name
• Select Filter messages like this
• Type in the specifications for the email messages you would like to stop receiving
• Click Create filter with this search
• Click Create filter
