Mavericks, Mail, and the new Gmail equation
If you use Mail to access Gmail, you’ll definitely want to read this article. The rules have changed.
This should be posted on every Mac thread/blog that there is on the net.
Serious question: Can someone explain to me the advantages of using Mail to access my Gmail? I use the web client in Chrome and can not think of any features I’m lacking. What does Mail actually bring to the table?
So far, this is the primary reason I’m holding off upgrading to Mavericks.
On the other hand, I never took the “optimizing” steps he listed, so this just means that for me – and for most non-power-users – Gmail now works better with Mavericks.
Mail really doesn’t bring anything to the table for me except multiple mailboxes in one place. That’s why I use it for gmail access.
I have zero issues with multiple gmail address is in mail. I don’t know what the big hubbub is all about.
I use gmail for that!
I’ve thought about that but don’t want to mix my biz and personal mail.
Thanks for the feedback. And confirming my suspicions. I only have three Gmail addresses which I consolidate into one through Gmail so I guess I don’t have to worry about Mail/Mavericks issues. Thanks again!
