Did you expect CListCtrl ? It is mentioned in the 'Optional Text Answers '.
|
|
|
|
|
No,not my doing.
Some time back I derived myListCtrl from CodeProject's specialized version of CListCtrl and have never gone back.

Well, considering only one optional answer for Mozilla was given, I think the survey covered it's scope pretty well

Found this (quite by accident):
http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp[^]
It shows browser type hits on the W3C website. The following (if it formats correctly) is for the most recent month for which they have data posted:
<br />
"2007..IE7...IE6...IE5..Fx....Moz..S....O "<br />
"July 20.1% 36.9% 1.5% 34.5% 1.4% 1.5% 1.9%"<br />
Certainly as respectable as Safari and Opera!

And for me the client does every thing outlook did for me (at work) faster and I have full access to all of my messages anywhere I can get access to the internet. I guess eventually I will cancel my paid yahoo account as well as I never use it anymore as gmail is much faster, it has a much better search engine and the threaded mail feature is very useful.

for me, gmail is quite good engine for
e-mailing because of its elegance UI
and faster than others (I think)
and his Dynamic interface give it a lot of points.

GMail is the best, fast, free, with few advertisments
integrated chat, simple search, it supports multiaccount
(you can reply to mails with no-gmail addresses)
I don't like GMail contact manager, and I hope it will
be expanded or redesigned, by now I use EssentialPIM Portable.

and i LOVE the label and filter system!
i can organize all my mail easily
when they arrive are already labeled and organized.
or we can talk about attachment handling...
with view and download features (imege preview, download all, view all)
or we can talk about spam or phishing mails which don't waste my time no more!
|

|

And the SpamFilter is really very good. You do not need to bother wasting your time fighting through the sea of spam.

Doesn't gmail keep your mail, deleted and otherwise, for their own uses?
Doesn't that bother any of you?

i don't think that someone is reading my email....
and i don't mind if a robot search keywords on my email for displaying some ads that i don't care about.

And why in the world would you imagine/believe/etc. that it simply stops at that?
Privacy - something people take so for granted until it's gone and they're unhappy with the conseequences.
You can bet anything, at any odds, that you (and sadly, your correspondents) are being personally profiled.
In your case, I don't care what you do with your own privacy. That's your choice.
But, any others who write to you are also being profiled . . . and victimized.
Myself? I didn't volunteer to have gmail profile me, so on the occasion I send mail to them it's from my own SMTP client (where I invent new From:'s continiously). I am falling victim to your lack of intrest in your own privacy.
For some of us (or maybe only me?), I don't care to wait for disaster before trying to avoid it.

Well, most of us don't really have anything worth hiding (unless your mom's meatloaf really tasting bad is a secret). Of course, Google could get some demographics off this (and probably do). Considering there's no ads in my face all day though, I can't say I mind that much.
I use GMail for work and personal communications. Would it piss me off Google was caught spying? Yeah. Would it be the end of the world? No, because I wouldn't use GMail or any web-based client for that matter for sensitive communications period. Or at the very least, I would encrypt a text file attachment when using it.
Also, keep in mind, even with a diff client, when email is stored on the server, ANY provider could have the potential to scan emails. At least Google, stated some intents. We just get scared because apparently Google is good at it.

We're not talking about potential - we're talking about stated intent!
Jeremy Falcon wrote: Well, most of us don't really have anything worth hiding
I was really hoping you'd not post that particular line. So - if you don't have anything worth hiding, then you won't mind if someone opens your (snail) mail and reads it? And your phone calls? Watch your vote? In fact, that particular "What Me Worry?" line is, in my opinion, dispicable in nature.
It matters not if what you're doing privately is right or wrong. Privacy isn't a judgement, it's a human right.
Perhaps you ought to consider: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_they_came...[^] - although couched in the contexts of politics, it may be applied, analogously, to personal privacy. Indeed - how can the two be thought of seperately?
Shrugging one's shoulders? It's happened before. As a rule, it ends up bad.

Actually, their stated intent was was for ads only and that no human would read it. They never said they were going to snoop around and have a jolly good time reading people's emails over a beer.

Well, I didn't expect you to rationalize. For one, snail mail tends to have more personal traces (ie, bank statements). Two, there's a difference between you knowing beforehand of someone listening in. The key difference is here choice. Nobody is forcing this on me, and I don't use gmail for anything worth hiding (as I already stated). Tell me, do you automatically hang up when you call a customer service dept. and hear "this call may be recorded for training purposes"? If you don't, then you're a hypocrite.

And like, ya know, it's been scientifically proven that being a poet makes someone always right.
