What's new on Gmail? Just launched!
[SIZE=-1]Reply on top
No more scrolling to the bottom of a long message to find the “Reply” link. Now there's a Reply button right on top, along with a lot of other options under the little dropdown arrow.
[/SIZE] *mail.google.com/mail/help/images/reply_on_top.gif [SIZE=-1] Embarassment-reducing new message notifications
Ever replied to a message only to find out that someone sent a better, smarter reply right before you? Now, if someone sends a reply while you're in the middle of reading a conversation (or replying to it), you'll get a notification that a new message has arrived. Click "update conversation" to see what you’ve missed.

Forward all

When viewing a conversation, use the new “Forward all” link on the right if you want to forward the entire conversation instead of just one message.

Chat even when your friends are offline
Chatting in Gmail just keeps getting better. Now, if you're chatting with a friend who goes offline, your friend will be able to see whatever you were typing the next time he or she goes online.

What's been keeping us busy...
[SIZE=-1]Ever since we launched Gmail, we've been working hard to make it better. Here are a few of the features we've added:[/SIZE]
  • [SIZE=-1]
  • Voicemail
    Your friends can leave you a voicemail using Google Talk. The voice message is sent to your Gmail account as an audio file that you can download or play right from your inbox. Learn more
  • Take an action on multiple messages
    Now you can apply the same action to all messages in a label or section of your account, such as archiving all mail in your Inbox, deleting all messages in Spam, or applying a label or filter to all relevant messages in your account. Learn more
  • Reply by chat
    When you're about to (or in the middle of a) reply to someone, and you see that person online, you can just send your reply as a chat message. And if you've chosen to save your chat histories, then your chat even gets threaded with that original email conversation. Learn more
  • Gmail in two more languages
    Now you can also use Gmail in Arabic and Hebrew. There are even some specially-designed features for right-to-left languages. Learn more
  • A picture's worth a thousand words
    With contact pictures in Gmail, you can pick ones for yourself, see which ones your friends have chosen, and set certain pictures to show up for specific people in your Gmail account. Best of all, you can even send picture suggestions to your friends. Learn more

  • Delete button
    Delete the messages you really don't want. For the rest, use Archive, which removes a message from your Inbox, but keeps it in All Mail so you can always find it later. Learn more*mail.google.com/mail/help/images/gmail_mobile_sm.gif
  • Gmail Mobile
    Point your phone's web browser to *gmail.com to access Gmail from your mobile phone or device. It's easy to use and it's free (but yes, your wireless plan could still charge you).

    It also automatically optimizes the interface for the phone you're using and lets you reply by call to people whose phone numbers are in your Gmail Contacts list. Learn more
  • Vacation auto-responder
    Set an auto-response so that if you're lying on a beach or taking a train across Siberia, your friends will know you won't be checking your email. Learn more

    *mail.google.com/mail/help/images/clips_prefs.gif
  • View as HTML
    Now you can view Microsoft Office, OpenOffice or .pdf attachments as web pages by clicking the "View as HTML" link instead of downloading. For when you want to see it faster, you're on a mobile device, or you don't want to install software just to view a document. Learn more

    Now Gmail automatically detects addresses and tracking numbers, and displays useful information such as directions and package tracking alongside your messages. Learn more
