Greetings, email users! Even if you are not a regular user of Google’s Gmail service, would you please take a minute to visit their feature suggestion page and write in their “I have a better idea” box the following four letters:
IMAP
IMAP would let us use our regular desktop email clients to get messages from our Gmail accounts.
Be sure to add your email address to the form and submit it when you’re done. Feel free to add a couple other things to the submission, as long as you include IMAP.
IMAP has long been an absent feature in Gmail, and while I understand the need to display ads on every page of their web interface (I’ve never clicked any of these, by the way) to generate money from the service, I don’t see why they couldn’t come up with some way to make money while using IMAP. They’re the geniuses, after all.
Right after that, they can concoct a way I can log into my AdSense account without flipping through that stupid page with the screenshot of that Dog Naming Service. I’m so sick of seeing that thing.
