I&#8217;ve used Eudora, Outlook, Thunderbird, Mail. I like email clients (well, with the exception of Outlook). Once I got an Android phone, I thought I&#8217;d give Gmail a try. A friend of mine had been using Gmail for quite a while, so I asked her what she thought about it. She loved it&#8230; except she had to warn me about how annoying &#8220;conversation view&#8221; might get. She wasn&#8217;t lying. It&#8217;s annoying. In fact, if you <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/search?hl=en&#038;source=hp&#038;biw=1680&#038;bih=933&#038;q=gmail+turn+conversation+view+off&#038;aq=0&#038;aqi=g1&#038;aql=&#038;oq=gmail+turn+conversation+v&#038;gs_rfai=CszDu166kTIDWFYzmNL-RiTYAAACqBAVP0OzHBg\">search for how to turn conversation view off<\/a>, you&#8217;ll see thread after thread, feature request after feature request practically begging Google for the ability turn it off. Well, Google has finally relented. Maybe they <i>are<\/i> keeping to their pledge to not be evil. <\/p>\n<p> P.S. To followers of my blog, I haven&#8217;t posted in a while, because I&#8217;ve been a little tired and busy, and I also haven&#8217;t had much new to say. So you get a fluff entry about Gmail.
