Webmail managed by Google is awful
Ever since Telus forced us to put our 2 Telus domain email accounts onto Google/Gmail it's a big pain managing our Telus email. Google is constantly bugging us about multiple Gmail identities, loggin...
If you are using Chrome as your browser you may want to use multiple Chrome profiles to access your multiple email domains. I have two profiles, each with a separate icon on my desktop and have none of the problems you identified.
Thanks for your suggestion. Those nagging Google pop-up messages about "One account for Google, everywhere" have disappeared for now on both my Chrome browser and my husband's Edge browser. We are stuck with multiple profiles strictly because of Telus outsourcing the email to Google.
We manage our joint Telus and my personal Telus email accounts in our browsers and we haven't stopped getting logged out of those periodically and having to log back into them. We both had active Google accounts before Telus made this switch and those accounts have nothing to do with our Telus email.
We manage our stuff in our separate browsers with pinned tabs that are restored any time the browser re-opens.
Re separate Chrome profiles, this doesn't sound like something I want to do, i.e., "Each profile keeps its information separate, such as tabs, sessions, bookmarks, history, homepage, and saved passwords."
I don't think my husband wants to keep everything separate for his Edge access to Telus mailbox, either.
Have you considered using an email program for one or all your email addresses.
Thank you for your suggestion. We did use Outlook for our Telus mailboxes for a long time, till we both started accessing email from away from home/on our phones a lot of the time. I find Outlook on the phone just not as convenient and a bit of a space hog. It's interesting as the Outlook Calendar and other mail features were one of the reasons I kept buying Microsoft Office for years but now I suppose I mainly get value from Excel spreadsheets, Word and sometimes Publisher.
