New Video: Email Access - Explained by Common Craft

Today we’re announcing a new video suggested by you, our dear members: Email Access - Explained by Common Craft

Common Craft Email Access
This video was based on a top-ranked suggestion for a video on “Web Based Email.”  In approaching this video, we asked members for clarification about their needs for a video involving this kind of title.  Based on this feedback, we decided to go in a direction that explains the role of email servers and why it makes sense that email works across devices and stays up-to-date. We think you’ll like it.
 
What it teaches:
 
Email has evolved over the years. It used to live on our computers, but it now lives on servers - and this evolution has changed how we think about email. This video highlights what these changes mean for the average email user. It teaches:
  • Basic email infrastructure: servers and email boxes
  • Why email is often safe, even when a computer is ruined
  • The difference between POP and IMAP email
  • Web-based email
  • Why email is now more accessible than ever
