Send photos via email that are a joy to receive.
Take the guesswork out of sending photos. Picasa 2 automatically resizes and attaches pictures to email messages at sizes your friends will be able to open. Works with most email programs, including Google’s Gmail.
GMail to GMail contacts import/export workaround
There is an easy workaround if you want to export your contacts to another GMail account, or any account that auto-adds your recipients to contacts. (Gmail does by default.)
On the account that you want to export, click on "contacts", then click on "all contacts" then select "all". Click "compose" and all your contacts will be in the TO: field. Copy them to clipboard and sign out of your account. Sign into the account where you wish to upload your contacts. Click on "compose" and paste your contacts into the "bcc" field and send a "new addy " note to all your contacts. (Put your own addy in the TO;) They will be auto-added to the contacts in your new account. Be sure to BCC! :)

A problem with Google's e-mail service, Gmail, let any user query the company's servers for information on the last message sent, two hackers announced on Wednesday.
The programmers, part of a community site dedicated to the Unix-like FreeBSD operating system, found that an improperly formatted address allowed Gmail users to retrieve the message body of the last HTML-formatted e-mail processed by the server.
