So to find Mister Hateful's invoice, simply click on the desktop Gmail shortcut you just made. Search your Gmail for that invoice among the archived copies of your emails using Google's fabulous Web-based email search tools.
Not only will you will find that invoice really fast, you'll also take advantage of Google's spam filtering and handy online backup of your email accessible from anywhere, even your mobile phone. Now, obviously, it will take time for enough email to populate your Gmail account so that you will have enough stuff to search through, and keeping both systems going forever would get a bit cumbersome. But we created a virtual email server, found content we needed to find without using folders and tested out getting our business emails from the Web -- all without spending a nickel.
