Google Gadgets: No-frills Google Mail

The gadget confuses accounts. If I have a google account (gmail) and an apps account (domain), it checks the wrong account without using the credentials I have supplied in preferences.

Please with sound and changable colors. Thanks!

Would be great if it plays sound when new mail arrives. Besides that -- fantastic tool.

Great gadget! I love it. Takes up very little room and displays just the info I need. I have noticed a couple of bugs however: (1) It seems to only show a maximum of 20 new mails. I have an account that apparently has 32 new mails, but the gadget insists it is only 20. (2) Clicking on mails directly in the box that opens to the side brings me to a login page for faust.ec's gmail service. I am using it on a my own domain (not regular gmail) so perhaps that is causing this problem. The 'Go' link does bring me to my correct inbox though, so this is really negligible.

Simple and effective. Well done!

Everything I need, thanks!

Wonderful gadget. With color options, legible text and sound notification it would be perfect. Thanks!

I like this gadget a lot, it is small & i just want it to show unread mails. However, it would be nice to be able to alter the either/or the header color or the background color. The header color (currently a very light blue) would be nice to easily differentiate between accounts (I have this gadget installed 3 times for 3 accounts). Also, the very light gray text on a white background is kind of difficult for me to read. Some of way of alleviating these minor problems would be nice. All in all, great gadget. Thanks =)

############# 1.9.0.0 the "Show" button now pops up a window with a list of emails, where, if using Google Apps, you can click on the email to automatically log in and go directly to the selected mail. In normal GMail you will land in the Inbox. Also, the "Go" button logs in directly into the Inbox. ############# 1.9.0.1: Fixed a bug which possibly made every login to end in the inbox instead of emails (google apps only).

Could you please allow this gadget to identify two email accounts? I would need two, one for Gmail and another one for another host Everything works and is just perfect for me. Simple, Go goes for the host, i wonder how it knows the server address because i want to add a new one for a portuguese email server (will the go work there?)

The Go Button doesnt seem to sign-in directly...:( Is this a limitation..?
