Offline Gmail is an official application from Google developed to allow Gmail users to store their Emails on their PC directly from Google Chrome to read them later. Technically this is an extension developed by Google team. This is especially for those users who don’t want to waste their bandwidth and time to log in to their Gmail account for reading old email. Although there are some Desktop Email available but yet this extension can be a good alternative for them. As this is lightweight and don’t need any separate installation rather then having Google Chrome, I think this might be pretty useful. You can also do Search, Compose, Mark Star using this. Join us after the break for more info.

To set this up, just follow the link below from Chrome and get that extension. You will then see a new app installed in Chrome and also a system tray icon too. To start Offline Gmail, just click on it from App Menu of Chrome or click on “Offline Google Mail” by right clicking on system tray icon.

On the first run you will be asked whether you allow to offline email or not. For your own safety, do not use this extension on a shared PC. If you are on your own PC, click on “Allow Offline Mail” and then hit continue.

Now you will be redirected to your Offline Gmail app. You can browse through your Email, search for one, give a mark on it or even compose one to send from this simple two pane app.
