Gravatar 

Gravatar (Globally Recognized Avatar) is an online service that allows you to associate a unique digital avatar or profile picture with your email address. Once you link an avatar to your email address, it will be automatically displayed on platforms integrated with Gravatar, offering a consistent and easily recognizable online identity. By associating an avatar with your Zoho Mail email address, your Gravatar becomes visible to others on blogs, websites, emails, and other places where you use your Zoho Mail email address. For example, when you send an email from an email address associated with a Gravatar account, the recipient's email client fetches the corresponding avatar linked to that email address and displays it in the emails as the sender's profile picture or avatar.

BIMI 

BIMI (Brand Indicators for Message Identification) provides a standardized framework for organizations to display their official brand logos in email recipients' inboxes, contributing to a consistent and recognizable brand presentation in email communications. This visual representation enhances brand visibility and helps recipients quickly recognize and trust the sender's identity. Configuring BIMI reinforces email security by ensuring that only authorized senders can display the associated brand logos, thereby preventing unauthorized senders from impersonating trusted brands. To learn more about BIMI and configure it for your organization, refer here.

Change Time zone

The time in the email is listed based on the Time zone set for your organization.

In case the emails are displayed with incorrect or irrelevant times that do not match your current time, it is possible that the time zone chosen is incorrect for your account. Follow the steps below to choose the correct time zone. 

1. Login to Zoho Mail
2. Click your Avatar, and select My Account
3. In the Zoho Accounts dashboard, choose My Profile Info section
4. Under Personal Information, Select Country/Time zone option.
5. Choose the values from the drop-down. 
6. Click Save to update the changes
7. You have to refresh the Zoho Mail page, for the changes to take effect. 

When you have 'Daylight Saving Time' followed in the region you choose, you can select the Time zone with Daylight Savings autocorrected. With this option chosen, the time details in your Zoho Mail will be automatically corrected to your region's time and will be displayed correctly. 

Managing your work

With the help of the Remote Work section in your user profile, you can check-in, check-out, manage your availability status right from your profile.

The status of availability and check-in, check-out will also reflect in other Zoho apps like Zoho People, Zoho Cliq, to name a few.

Accessing Admin console and Subscription details

The Admin Console and Zoho Payments to manage your subscription can be accessed from the User Profile section by clicking on Admin Console and Subscription buttons respectively.
