What’s going on here then? I have lots of email addresses and they all end up in one way or another going to a Gmail account. Some of the email addresses on certain domains have actual email accounts associated with them. I don’t actually login via POP to these addresses, instead I have Gmail set up...
You may remember that Morgan’s pet guinea pig Squeak died a few months ago. Morgan was heart broken at the time and it also left us with a dilemma. Morgan had another guinea pig called Bo. I was concerned that Bo would get lonely on her own. She is only about 3 years old and...

I’ve finally caught up with the rest of the Mac World by upgrading my iMac to run the latest Apple operating system Mountain Lion (OX 10.8). I had several reasons for waiting so long to do so. First was the fact that Snow Leopard (OS 10.6) was running perfectly well on my machine. I was...
