22 Part I — Starting to Use Gmail FIGURE 3-8: A filter, set up FIGURE 3-9: Receiving mail from anti-dot fanatic Indeed, as Figure 3-10 shows, the dot is basically ignored. Put it anywhere you like or leave it out entirely: yet another way to produce filterable e-mail addresses inside Gmail.
Chapter 3 — Gmail Power Tips 23 FIGURE 3-10: The blessing of the wandering dot One final thing about addressing: If you are sending a mail to someone else’s Gmail account, you needn’t add the @gmail.com section of the address. Just type the first half and it is delivered perfectly well. Quickly Mark a Group of E-Mails Like most desktop applications, Gmail actually allows you to mark a group of items without having to select each one individually (by mark, I mean to put a check in the checkbox next to an e-mail when you are presented with a list of e-mails). With Gmail, if you’d like to select a group of consecutive messages without marking each one separately, you simply need to check the first one in the list, and then hold down the Shift key and check the last one you want to include in the group of marked messages — the two e-mails you checked and all of the e-mails between them will now be marked. You can use the same method to unmark e-mails and to star or unstar them. Note, however, that this might not work in all browsers. Send Executables as Attachments When you receive an e-mail from an address that doesn’t end in @gmail.com, Gmail looks at attachments for file extensions known to be executable (such as .dll, .exe, .vbs, and so forth), so if someone sends you one of these file types, their message will bounce back. This goes for files within ZIP archives as well — Gmail looks inside these for executable extensions and the e-mail bounces back to the sender if it contains any. Gmail doesn’t look inside other archive formats, such as RAR or ACE, so you might want to use one of these formats instead of going through the hassle of the following workaround. To get around this annoyance, you can use the same trick that has been used for years. Simply tell the sender to rename the extension of the file to something Gmail will allow (such as .jpg), and when you receive the file, rename it back to the type it really is (for example, change file.jpg to file.exe).
