Some of the Gmail Offline Settings You Should Know
- Choose the storage size that will be allotted for the offline data related to this feature. You also get an easy toggle to remove all of this data when you want.
- Pick the duration for which you want to store emails offline.
- For security reasons, you can authorize Gmail to auto-delete the data when you log off from Gmail. But the next time you log in, the service may take some time to resync the mailbox. That’s all.
- After you enable all the preferred settings, press the “Save Changes" option. This will activate Gmail offline on your computer.
Note that When you use Gmail in this offline mode, your mail is saved in the “Outbox” folder and when the internet connection is back, Gmail automatically sends the saved email.
