Gmail is a widely used email client. In the current generation of internet and computer users, you will rarely find anyone without a Gmail account. The available Support for Gmail is also awesome. In addition, Gmail has a number of features which makes managing emails easier along with superior privacy as well as data security features.
There are some features that seem to be hidden because users are not aware of all of them.
Spam Hiding Capabilities - It is an enlightening fact that the inclusion of dots into the email address of your account does not hamper the capacity of you receiving the emails. For instance, if you do not want to give your email address while you sign up for an online service, you can just include a dot anywhere in the email address or you could include multiple dots as well, you will still receive the emails sent by the online service which would be using the wrong email address. In this way, you can create an email filter so that you could delete all the emails that come to the bogus id that you had given.
Easy Identification of Email Subscriptions - You can now easily manage any newsletter subscriptions that you would have had with the help of the "+"feature. You can add filters that will filter out the emails with the "+" included in the address and you can move them out with ease.
Synchronization of Contacts - You can now sync all the contacts of your smartphone with Gmail. This will help you have a backup of your contacts. So now you will not be faced by the dreaded situation of losing all your contacts from your phone as you can get it synced back again into your phone from Gmail.
Address Restore Feature - Ideally a contact deleted from your phone will also be deleted from Gmail once you sync it. However, with Gmail you will still have the option of recovering the contact within a span of 30 days after deletion.
Labs - This is an experimental corner in your Gmail. You can enable a preview pane from here, you can move the chat from the left pane to the right using the "Right-side Chat" option.
Merging contacts - Now you can merge duplicate contacts with the "Find & Merge Contacts" available in the top right hand corner in Gmail under "Contacts".
Calendar - Now updating a calendar event, saving a task or a reminder is easy with the calendar feature in Gmail which can be operated with the Google ID.
