Kinda defeats the purpose of labels instead of folders. And, oh, where are the threads?

From the FAQ:

Why aren’t my messages threaded?

Like POP, IMAP treats messages individually and not as a threaded conversation. If you move a message to an IMAP folder in your mail client, only that message in the conversation will move to that folder. However, in the web interface, the whole conversation will be given the corresponding label. The same rules will apply to labels applied through filters.

Additionally, IMAP clients store a copy of a message for each label in which it appears. For example, if one particular message in your web Gmail account has the labels, ‘From Best Friends,’ ‘Classmates,’ and ‘Soccer,’ then the same message will be stored four times in your mail client; three times for each label and once in the ‘All Mail’ folder. If the message is starred, it will be downloaded a fifth time in the ‘Starred’ folder.

Hoookaayy… Thanks, GMail, but no thanks*. I’m sticking to the web interface for now, until you’ve got GMail Offline all sorted out.

*Yes, I have POP/IMAP already. Big deal.

The phone, that is. (But come to think of it, *that* would make a nice pick-up line. Er… As I was saying…)

This is the LG KS10 phone, the first of a series of mobile phones with Google services pre-installed. Now, that’s even sexier.

Go there. Or view this.

Right…

• My iandexter.net Google-hosted email is having DNS problems. Hay…
• Wracking my brain all day, trying to figure out how to migrate Serena Version Manager files to Subversion. So far, PVCS-to-RCS has been successful, but it only gets the latest version — no version history!

Update: The DNS resolution issue points to my availment of a service from my domain registrar — turns out they had to point my domain to their name servers. Thus, the MX record for iandexter.net vanished. Fast propagation, though, as I got nearly instantaneous update.

Up-update: Interestingly, during the period when the MX record did not resolve, I still received spam mails. Spam is that resilient? I shudder at the thought.

I’ve been visiting a few foreign-language sites lately, and Google Translate is a great tool, if a bit awkward.

I created a bookmarklet that will point the site to Google Translate. I then added a keyword (”gt”) so that when I’m in the site, I can just press F6, and enter the keyword.
