*Grumble*

Is anyone else having trouble tracking things in the new Gmail system? My categories are no longer staying together, and things are sliding out of sight much too quickly.

I really don't want to get myself a new form of mail, but I'm starting to drown, here....

I've been lucky so far - every time it has changed me to the new layout, I've been able to hit the "switch back to the old layout temporarily" option.

Have you considered using a client like Thunderbird for your email? You can use a web-based account, but access it through a client on your home computer, which you can customize as much as you like. Thunderbird is the mail client analogue to Firefox for a browser (like Outlook and Internet Explorer).

I tried it for a day. There's a place to leave feedback when you switch back and I left the most clinical nasty-gram I could.

It's awful.

I like most of the changes. What do you mean by "categories"?
