Read one mailbox in two places
Read the same mail on your phone and your computer, with nothing going missing.
Your mail is kept on your provider’s computers, not inside your phone. Your phone and your computer are two windows onto the same mailbox.
Nothing is copied across when you switch. Both look at the one pile.
Key points
- Your mail lives on your provider’s computers, not on one device
- Every device you sign in with is a window onto it
What to remember
- Neither device holds the only copy.
- One mailbox. As many windows as you like.
Try this
Open your mail on a second device tonight and find a message you read this morning.
