Couple things on gmail.

First, go vote for what you want in gmail.  Its an independent site for gmail users, and hopefully the votes are taken into consideration.  I voted what what I'd like to see.  Check it here

Also, did you know your gmail can accept “alias” mails.  Send something to

gmailusername+sometag@gmail.com

Interesting.  So I'm guessing this could be used to setup filters based on diff “aliases” that are added to your address.  Wish I had know this when I started the account, maybe I would have tagged everything without a + to be spam, and only qualified aliases would hit my inbox.  On well.
