+.Aaron Subscriber¹ Posted June 16, 2004 Subscriber¹ Share Posted June 16, 2004 Gmail may be done with the bug report stage but I do not think it is going to go public in 2 days. I emailed them about a feature they should add about allow you to insert a contact into a composed email without copying and pasting. So I got the following reply back: From: Gmail Team <gmail-support@google.com>To: (left out for privacy issues) Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2004 17:46:12 -0700 Subject: Re: [#11164465]Just a suggesting Hello Aaron, Thank you for your suggestion regarding the contact list -- we are forwarding it to the appropriate team. We certainly appreciate hearing from Gmail users and encourage you to continue to let us know how we can improve the Gmail experience. You might be interested to hear that we are working on many upcoming features, including the following: - Automatic forwarding of your email to another account - Plain HTML version of Gmail - Import/export Contacts We hope you enjoy Google's approach to email. Sincerely, The Gmail Team Original Message Follows: ------------------------ From: (left out for privacy issues) Subject: Just a suggesting Date: Mon, 14 Jun 2004 20:18:14 -0000 I am using Gmail and love it. But I just have a suggestion. There is no way to access the contacts and add more than 1 at a time when composing an email. So I suggest that you add someway of doing so. It will improve gmail quite a bit. I enjoy gmail and will continue using it to promote its use. GmailAddress: (left out for privacy issues) QuestionTopic: addrbook Name: Aaron Zercher OS: winxp Browser: Internet Explorer 6.x From this I have determined that it is not going released in 2 days time. It takes time to put these in place and then to test them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forster Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Hi all there,Now you dont have to wait more. In just two days from now GMAIL is going public. All the changes it seems is done in GMAIL. And yesterday the YAHOO's 100MB indicates that time has come to go officially public. So dont panic for invites Wait for two more days. RUBBISH !

CuervoM5 Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 Anyone have a guess on how hard the gmail servers will be stressed and for how long when it goes public? Let's hope its not like the national do not call registry and the whole thing just go BOOM. Think its going to be slower after it goes pub?

bakerster Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 They have 100,000 Severs hosting Google. They WON'T blow up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiftof Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 It might be slow, but I think the people at gmail know a bit what to expect so they will be prepared. But for me there won't be no rush when it goes public. If the gmail site is very slow the first days, I'll just wait to sign up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueshirt Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 I'm afraid this is true.....but still, would like them to increase their storage size cuz 2 mbs.... it's really little maybe looking at others, they might increase the size hopefully and if not, let's hope all the users change to any other server so they will have to increase it :D :D :D They should use Bill's money to upsize the storage. That way they could set the limit to 1gigs! :woot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoyablue Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 spymac.com's 1GB is all fair and good but it is slowww. Even for POP, it takes noticeably longer to check Spymac than my SBC email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo_joel Posted June 16, 2004 Share Posted June 16, 2004 I personally dont get what the big deal is with everyone and Gmail. Who really needs 1gb of storage :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyNZ Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 so did you guys try it??? ^^^ spymac.com Lol yeah, just for the hell of it, its **** anyway :/. I might offer an email service for private users, maybe 100-1000MB email accounts, the domain will be email@x1.cc, but I'll have to think about it, and it'll be strickly limited ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Grey Member Posted June 17, 2004 Member Share Posted June 17, 2004 "Gmail's Reporting Stage is over now"The thread posted last week gave me an idea that yahoo will offer more than 50 mb. I was right yahoo is now 100mb. The thread reads "Hmmm... On my Gmail account, It appears that the "Report a Bug" feature link is not there anymore, It seems that The Reporting a bug stage is over now, this might be a hint that Gmail Maybe possibly be released this comming next week or at the very end of this month, not to sure.. What do you all think? Notice any bugs still or appearance problems or suggestions? And along with them sending out all these invites to people... " So the clue is more than enough. Hey, I got the "Report a Bug" feature link". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
