I think this gadget could use a "Select All" Checkbox like in the regular GMail interface. Being able to select all my new messages and then archiving them all at once would be much more efficient.
I used to be able to see how much unread mail I have. Please put it back so I don't have to open mail unless I have unread messages. Thanks. (See how easy it is to be polite, Earl Gillis?)
I want to be able to see the list of e-mails I have on my home page. FIX IT!
I want my iGoogle page back!!! - Theresa Michiel - Nov 20, 2009 - Report this comment
What happened to my Gmail preview??? Until yesterday it looked just like the screen capture shown at the top of this page. [Odd that Google still shows the original format as an example] I don't want others to read my emails just because I chose to have Gmail on my home page. I managed to get rid of the Chat side bar which also showed up at the same time, but had to add another app to do that. Why force users to fix something that was working in the first place. If I want to read my email I am quite capable of clicking the Inbox link. I am also not interested in the Chat column that I just got rid of. From comments I have read over the past 24 hours, the majority of users were quite happy with the setup before it was changed. Listen to your customers. If if isn't broken, DON'T fix it.
I hide the previews, because I don't want those around me reading my emails. However the gadget won't even show me how many emails are in the box anymore. :o(
That none of the non-google-developed apps work in my iGoogle. Sorry, this gadget uses the inlining feature, which is no longer supported." or blank boxes, etc..
I agree with the others here, I want the old gmail tool back, this new one is annoying and I'm considering removing it. The old version is much better.
I hate the new look of both igoogle and gmail. I totally agree with the others ! why should you change some thing that works just fine !?
PLEASE bring back the old version !!!Nacim MESBAH - Nov 19, 2009 - Report this comment
I really really really don't like (to the point of hating it) the new updated version of gmail gadget.The igoogle page sucks too, big time !!! you really must take off the left side bar, no one use that stuff ! many many people have the same say. take it all back please !
And is slower also. I do not like new look, Please change it back. I like this: - hide emails - hide/show gadget with one click - *make things optional and configurable* I hate this: - minimize/expand gadgets with two click (and check to do not click on remove gadget!) - tabs on screen (it takes a lot of space on the left side) - chat (I do not want to chat on igoogle page) - slow loading/refreshing
If it looked and worked like the screenshot we'd all be happy. But it's not. It's ugly and irritating. Why change it? Why not provide options? What's up with you guys? PLEASE drop the left hand menu. Give us out horizontal tabs back! Give us our old Gmail gadget back! Get rid of those silly, useless checkboxes! Grrr.
Hate that it now shows your emails instead of just the number of new emails. I hate that i dont have a choice and am stuck with this new version. Have deleated it . Ruining Gmail for me totally
rather than force the new look on everyone which not just let us choose which way it is displayed, same with the tabs aswell which I have downloaded a firefox add-on to get rid of.
again again again The Gmail gadget does not support the "Always use https" preference that you selected in your Gmail settings. If you would like to use https, please open Gmail directly. Learn more

It would be great to have an option to only show previews for the unread messages in your inbox... Would make my life better, anyway.
Come ON!! Earl Gillis - Nov 20, 2009 - Report this comment

I liked the old one much better. I'm with Wendy, I don't want others to be able to read my emails just because they automatically show up on screen.
This thing sucks
