  Most wanted Gmail features http://gmailfeatures.grytoyr.net/

From the site:

Most wanted Gmail features
... as voted by actual Gmail users!

What is the purpose of this site?

Remains to be seen. After using Gmail for a while, I decided that
something like this might be useful, or at the very least rather
interesting. Of course, if the Gmail team were to glance in this
direction before deciding what features to implement next, that would
be cool, too :)

Anyway, let's try to keep this "wish list" as representative of real
Gmail users as possible (no cheating!) and see what happens—it
certainly can't do any harm. Thanks.

  A Nice Collection of GMail Utilities A nice collection of GMail Utilities, some of which are new to me:

http://www.aimlesswords.com/gmail_utilities.php

"GMail Utilities

So you have your GMail account but you need a little extra something.
Perhaps you need a GMail import utility? Or possibly a GMail POP3
proxy program. Or maybe you are interested in turning Gmail into a
file archival system? Here is a list of Gmail utilities I have run
across over the past few weeks. Each utility has the date I added it
and the newest utility finds will be at the top. I have also added a
list of interesting websites related to GMail. Enjoy."

  Slashdot Thread on Google, GMail and Privacy http://yro.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=114696&cid=9714907


"True. Anyone using a webmail service is putting a lot of trust in a company not holding personal missives for private gain. But what's to say that any mailserver out of your hands isn't logging full copies of everything you send?

Which is the better path?

1. Spread a tenth of your data between each of ten commercial providers, each with x% chance of abusing it.

2. Put all of your information with a single operator with that same chance.

I mean, if you're doing seriously dodgy stuff, then something like Echelon is going to bust you anyway."

  GoogleGroups Preferences page I had occasion to visit my Googlegroups preferences page last night:

http://groups-beta.google.com/groups/prefs?

and found it to be far more user-friendly than the corresponding page at Yahoogroups.

This is where you can set whether or not someone can add or invite you, you can set your nickname for all groups with one click, set your delivery options for all groups with one click, and set them for each group individually as well.

It is worth a visit if you haven't been there before.

  Gmail is the best thing that ever happened to Sun Microsystems. Gmail is the best thing that ever happened to Sun Microsystems.

http://www.thewgalchannel.com/technology/3511452/detail.html

Nevertheless, Gmail validates a claim that Sun has been making for nearly a decade—that it’s possible to replace a network of PCs running Windows with world-class computers offering computing services to low-cost and easily-managed desktop machines—perhaps machines so inexpensive that they don’t even have a hard disk. Sun called such computers “thin clients.”

  Interloc Case and "Stored Communications" http://www.startribune.com/stories/561/4869057.html

Editorial: You've got wiretap/Laws on e-mail need upgrade

Interloc was prosecuted under a 1986 federal law that prohibited interception of "electronic communications," putting e-mail in the same protected category as telephone calls and face-to-face conversations. But in the trial, and then on appeal, an Interloc supervisor argued successfully that what he'd been snooping through were really "stored communications," covered by a different and somewhat looser law, also enacted by Congress in 1986.

Among some Internet-dependent companies, there is concern that too radical a rewriting of the act would torpedo new services -- such as Google's Gmail, now in the testing stages -- that will machine-scan e-mail as a way of identifying consumer appetites, which can then be addressed with even more advertising.

  GoogleGroups has issues today. Sorry, something didn't work correctly.

If we knew exactly what the problem was, we would tell you instead of giving you this useless error message. Actually, if we knew, we would most likely have fixed it already.

Rest assured. As you read this, alarm bells are ringing at the Googleplex, signifying something has gone horribly wrong in this quadrant. A report will soon be in the hands of our engineering team, detailing the bad thing that happened here. This team will work without rest to address the problem you have brought to their attention.

If, after a decent interval (about 24 hours), you encounter this problem again, please email us at accounts-support@google.com . The more specifics you include, the better (e.g., what kind of computer and browser you were using, what page you looked at last, what you clicked on, etc.). Sometimes, even our engineers need a little help.

Thanks for using Google.   ¶ 5:03 PM 0 comments

  The Fuss About Gmail and Privacy: Nine Reasons Why It's Bogus The Fuss About Gmail and Privacy: Nine Reasons Why It's Bogus
Tim O'Reilly

There has been a rash of recent editorials about privacy concerns with Google's gmail service. A number of organizations have asked Google to voluntarily suspend the service. One California legislator has gone so far as to say she plans to introduce a bill to ban it. This is nuts! A number of things to consider.

  Can I block emails from certain senders? http://gmail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=8151

Can I block emails from certain senders?

Gmail users can't currently block messages from specific email addresses or domains. In the meantime, you can set up a filter so that unwanted mail bypasses your inbox. To set up a filter, follow these easy steps:

1. Click 'Create a filter' under the search box at the top of any Gmail page.

2. Fill in the appropriate fields with the the filter's criteria, and click 'Next Step.'

3. Choose the action you'd like to take on the message by checking the appropriate box (in this case, we suggest checking 'Move it to the Trash').

4. Click 'Create Filter.'

After you create a filter, the filter's rules will automatically be applied to incoming mail. You can edit your filters at any time by clicking 'Settings.'

  How do I import addresses into my Contacts list? http://gmail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=8301

How do I import addresses into my Contacts list?

You can import address books from Outlook, Yahoo!, orkut and other services to your Gmail account by uploading CSV (comma separated values) files.

To import contacts to Gmail:

Create a custom CSV file or export the address book from your other webmail provider or email client as a CSV file. (Additional information on exporting and creating or altering .csv files is listed below.)

Log into Gmail and click 'Contacts' at the top of the page. The Contacts list will open in a new window.

Click 'Import Contacts.'

Click 'Browse' and locate the CSV file you wish to upload from your computer.
Select the file and click 'Import Contacts.' After successfully uploading the document, a dialogue box displays the number of new entries that were added to your Contacts list.

Gmail only imports contacts that contain email addresses. If some entries aren't included in your Contacts list, Gmail will tell you why these entries were left out.

Because Gmail does not offer group or distribution list functionality at this time, this information won't be transferred from other address books into your Gmail Contacts list.

Please note that if you import information about a contact that matches the email address of an existing entry, only the most-recently uploaded version of that entry will remain in your Gmail Contacts list.

  Can I send or receive an executable file @ GMail? http://gmail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=6590&query=virus&topic=&type=f

Can I send or receive an executable file @ GMail?

As a security measure to prevent potential viruses, Gmail does not allow you to receive executable files (such as files ending in .exe) that could contain damaging executable code.

Gmail does not accept these types of files, even if they are sent in a zipped (.zip, .tar, .tgz, .taz, .z, .gz) format. If someone tries to send this type of message to your Gmail account, the message will be bounced back to the sender.

  Gmail as an online backup system Gmail as an online backup system
