Interesting Gmail feature

[OriginalGriff]

There have been times when I wish that had happened - don't you feel such a fool?

Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

Thunderbird does that.

Yes, it's been there for some time. Maybe a year I think. They're always rolling out little features like this - often in Gmail Labs.

That's quite cool, but I can't send an .exe in a .zip file (either using the web interface or Outlook), which is no fun when trying to update your article :(

Just rename the .zip to .zip1 or something and it will skip the exe filter.

Code Project should warn you with a message like: "This topic was posted in 14th May 2010 by Rama... do you want to post it anyway?"

[Rajesh R Subramanian]

If CodeProject did that automatically, what would I do here? :-D

I think they're working on an enhancement that if you write 'I love you' to your girlfriend it will recommend a diamond ring with a good discount ;)
