Access Gmail with no Internet Connection using Offline Google Mail

There are many times when your internet connections is lost, so the Offline Google Mail will be your real lifesaver to send, read and synchronize your emails. It works without the net connection. When your internet connection is restored, it synchronises with your Gmail account, downloading new messages and sending messages that it has queued up.
Offline Google Mail is only currently available for Google Chrome. Follow the steps below to learn how to use this great browser application.

3. Once Offline Google Mail has been installed, you can access it from your new tab page in Google Chrome. Simply open a new tab in Chrome and click the Offline Google Mail icon. You may be required to log into your Gmail account at this point, if you are not already.
4. A message appears confirming that you want to allow offline mail, and that you should not do this from a public or shared computer. Click Allow Offline Mail and then Continue if you want to proceed.
5. Once Offline Google Mail launches, it will begin downloading your Gmail messages locally. Your messages soon become available within its interface, which is based on the tablet version of Gmail.
