Check Your GMail Settings

New Year’s Maintenance time!

I’m in the middle of backups and all sorts of year-end (a bit late) stuff.

Gina Trapani over at Smarterware has some good advice about Gmail maintenance.

Make sure your account recovery options are set properly. If the email you give is inactive or broken, you’ll never be able to reset a password. If your security question is wrong, or you’ve forgotten the answer, you’re stuck if you ever want help with GMail.

Go check it now!!

Definitely a worthwhile post. Thank you. Not that I needed it (it seems my settings are all up to par. Cue hubris), but diligence is a necessary responsibility, and the occasional reminder is helpful.

Thank you for the reminder. My e-mail was ok, but the other stuff on the page neede correction. :-)
