Gmail is one of the most popular online email programs. Why not? It's encrypted, easy to access when you are on the road, and you will never have to change your email address, even if you move and change your Internet Service Provider. Yet, getting used to a new email program can be a little scary. Here's where you can get help.

When you start using Gmail, you find that although some things are familiar, many things are not. For instance, Gmail uses labels instead of folders. So there are sure to be some new things that you have to get used to and even more important, things that you have to understand.

Fortunately, Google offers help for new users. At Gmail Help you can find out how to setup your new email, how to send and receive email, how to navigate the email interface, and much, much more. Google also has Help Forums where you can post a question and/or read the questions and answers of others.

If you are using a different new email program like Yahoo! Mail or AOL Mail, check out their websites. They all offer help for new users.
