I will allways look at my email on web never on an app Apps tend to mess up emails and not show correctly plus if you have an app down load an email any one that uses your computer or looks in the folders can also see the email that's one of the reasons I stopped using outlook plus with an app downloading emails it also downloads and viruses that came with the email I learned that one the hard way It cost me a 10.000$ network server :'( lol

Google+ is gmail and it sounds like they changed it still I will never use it lol

When I had gmail every photo I took was shared rite away with out me knowing till my mom called me about one once 10 minutes after I took it sure glad it was only a wildlife shot but still that ended my gmail days right there they may have changed things for the better but I still will not trust it

Now I only use hot mail and only on a browser

With the utmost respect you seem to be lacking in even the most basic knowledge of PC security.

Apps have never messed up any email I have received - I receive 2-3000 emails per account per day and have 6 accounts receiving emails over 2 PCs, 2 android phones, 1 android tablet, 1 iphone and 1 windows tablet. I have 27,328 unread emails in my primary email account, these are only the past 3 months (to be fair most are from EZ-Robot)

Web mail came after email. Prior to the "invention" of web based access to emails you required an app to download and view email.

Any file, folder or user account can be both secured with passwords and encrypted. This prevents unauthorised access. Some email clients also allow the use of password protection before they will open.

Anti virus software is advisable in all cases.

No disrespect meant but I would highly suggest you (re)educate yourself.

@Wolfie.... I like you dude... I really do, but you're digging a hole here for yourself.... Time to let it go... Rich and Alan have probably forgotten more about this kind of stuff than most of us will ever know....

"Google+ is gmail" No, it isn't. I second Rich's suggestion.

I like and respect you, but your assertions about how computers in general work, and security in particular are ill-informed.

Alan

I take it you never used the app called outlook express on your pc that's the main app im referring to it is BAD it download every thing never shows the emails the way they show look and saves every thing in folders on your computer

When I dealt with it I was living with a web security msn agent we both used it and learned about its problems at the same time needless to say we did not use it for long

:)

Every suggestion made is responded to with some kind of reason (that doesn't even hold true) why it wont work and complete disregard to very similar suggestions made by multiple different people.

I hope you find solutions but I am unable to help further I'm afraid.
