In the language of a 17th-century pirate, email be a foul beast that be better off avoided. Instead, I be preferin' to meet in person, have a video parley, or chat like a scurvy pirate. If we find ourselves in an email exchange, I be makin' the call to ye instead!But let's not be dismissin' email completely, matey. There be some uses for it, so ye might as well make yer inbox a useful place. I start me year by clearin' out all the old messages from the year before. Give it a go, ye landlubber!
Arrr, ye scallywags! Be ye aware of the wonders of email archivin'? It be keepin' a record of all the messages ye sent and received, so ye always be havin' a copy of 'em, but they don't clutter up yer inbox like barnacles on a ship. Ye can file 'em away in folders if ye be the organized sort, but if not, archivin' be a great gift to yerself for the new year. It be an easy resolution to keep, mateys! Just click a few buttons, and ye be sailin' smoothly!
Now, bear with me, me hearties, as I guide ye through the process of archivin' in different email services. In Gmail, ye be needin' to click on the "Archive" button to make yer messages disappear from sight. Fear not, though! They be found in the "All Mail" section. Aye, ye may need to repeat this step a few times to make sure all yer messages be archived.
If ye be usin' Apple Mail, ye can find yer archived emails in the "Archive" folder. Simple as that, me mateys! In Microsoft Outlook, the emails don't go to a separate folder. Instead, they be headin' straight to a data file ye can access whenever ye please. Ye can find 'em under the "Archives" heading.
Ah, ye scurvy dogs! Now yer inbox be as clean as a whistle for the new year. And if ye be worryin' about missin' somethin' important, fear not! If it be truly vital, that person be sendin' ye another email. Just remember, even if ye archive yer messages, they can still be summoned for legal matters. Seek legal counsel if ye be havin' any concerns, me hearties!
And for those of ye who be usin' Yahoo, there be steps for archivin' on the website. But me advice be to keep expandin' yer tech knowledge. Ye can listen to me podcast, "Kim Komando Today," for 30 minutes of tech news, tips, and questions from landlubbers like yerselves. Search for it on yer favorite podcast platform. And don't forget to check out the link for a recent episode!
So there ye have it, me hearties! Ye now be armed with the power to tame yer inbox like a true pirate of the digital seas. Ye be ready to sail into the new year with a clean slate. And if ye be wantin' to sound like a tech pro, listen to me radio show or get me daily email newsletter. Fair winds and smooth sailin', me mateys!
