A (Somewhat) Universal Inbox

Friday August 8, 2008 

I’m sure that there’ll be some people reading this who will figure that I’m a bit slow for not having done this sooner, but seeing as how all of my domains use Google Apps to manage the email, I went into the settings for each account and had them all forward on to one specific address, making the daily email run a little simpler. 

Once mail starts coming in to the catch-all address, I’ll start applying filters so that the amount of mail that I absolutely *have* to read.  I realized that I hadn’t been checking all of them regularly, and I’m a little surprised at the amount of spam that got through Google’s filters.  No matter, though, I’ll just mark the stuff as spam and it’ll be gone for good.

Now if I could just find something that would forward voice mail from my cell to this same inbox, I’d be really happy.

    Isn’t that what this new-fangled ‘visual voicemail’ is for?

    Interesting. Too bad about the Rogers one being iPhone only.

Got something to say?
