Doh.
This morning I had a pretty epic “Doh!” moment. I contacted my domain name registrar and very good friend Nancy over at Move2HigherGround about renewing the domains and certain email options. She casually reminded me about the email I have through her that I’ve always checked through OE, and the thought occurred to me that I hadn’t logged into the webmail in forever so I couldn’t remember what it even looked like. Imagine my chagrin when I found it to be strikingly similar to OE and NOTHING like Gmail (which I am pretty torqued with after fighting with it for two days straight, but I’m getting there).
So after going in and setting up mail import on my Roadrunner email and switching my Yahoo groups over, I’m calming down and appreciating Gmail for what it is and not mad about what it isn’t. I spent all evening yesterday forwarding emails to my Gmail, so at least now there is quite a bit backed up someplace other than my hard drive.
I can’t believe all this time the best option was right here under my nose. I’m pretty sure there’s a lesson in that.
