I have noticed that Gmail is lacking in a lot of areas. I dislike the UI a lot and there is now way to quickly move something to JUNK, or have it classified as SPAM. I guess they are still working on it. (Duh)

I really like Gmail's UI... very clean and efficient. Not filled with crap like MSN, Yahoo, etc.

You can report an email as spam and it will be moved to the junk folder, as well as report the address to Gmail staff for possible addition to the spam filters... Just click on the Report Spam button.

I don't know what UI you're talking about. For me, all I have to do to classify something as spam is check the box next to the message (or use k/j to move up and down the list, and x to select, for the times when I don't feel like using the mouse). Then it's as simple as clicking the "Report Spam" button right at the top.

As for permanently deleting a non-spam message, that's a little harder. The main reason is probably because gmail is supposed to be centered on search, so you archive (y key) any messages that aren't current/important, then search for it later if you need it.

For example, in my account, Gmail says I have 1280 conversations when I go to the All Mail section. My inbox has 5 conversations (summer internship, work on a friend's campaign website, interview with microsoft employee, application to be RA at my university, and a recipie from my mom). Starred conversations (for me, this simply is an importance flag) has five conversations (two also in inbox).

Katchoo just invited me a few days ago and I have to admit GMail is far superior to anything. So far though I've decided to use it with Mozilla Thunderbird http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif
