Email should work the way it is, nothing more. Those new features etc. almost never makes things better. And if you still want to do those things, then at least make an option to switch it off.

I've also lost many emails in the conversation view and stopped using gmail as a result. Maybe it's because I don't use "reply" just to get back to people on the same topic.. I often hit reply to avoid typing in the email address when sending a new mail.<br /><br />Now I wish Google stops my Android gmail forcibly attaching conversation history to my emails!

Join the real world, and give people what they want. I want to have a sort feature because the "search" feature is primitive to say the least. I want to separate the "spam" I get from companies I do online business with from the online bills I get from them. By sorting by the sender field, I can just highlight a big block of them and delete or archive or whatever. Using search forces me to pull up every email that has the name eBay in it, for example, and then go through the resultant list one-by-one to make sure I'm not deleting something I want to save. I don't have time to bother with all the labeling. I just want to sort-highlight-delete some stinking spam... I've notice companies use a number of sending email addresses for their sales spam, so just when I think I know what to "search" for I end up missing some.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-8006087934587829552011-02-02T10:54:44.157-08:002011-02-02T10:54:44.157-08:00Threading: if you've got to force this crap on...Threading: if you've got to force this crap on users, that's a pretty sure sign that it's merely a designer's flight of fancy, and not a 'feature'.

I have introduced Gmail to some people in developing countries who had never used e-mail before, and they seemed to find it natural that conversations should be threaded together. The problem with introducing innovations like this is that many people have got used to the old way of doing things, and see that as "right". It's a case of being locked in to the old way of doing things, like with the qwerty keyboard.<br /><br />My dad claims that the Gmail online interface is unusable because you can't sort your messages (by sender, subject, etc), so it's impossible to find anything. No amount of explanation can convince him to use the search box instead...Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00211591769173375581noreply@blogger.com
