GMail gets auto-replies

This is probably more useful than GMail’s last experimental new feature (Mail Goggles): Canned responses (see Official GMail blog). You can now save a reply you’re writing as a “canned response” and then quickly select one of these responses when you’re replying to a future e-mail.

You can also have your GMail filters auto-reply to messages for you with these reponses.

Dutch court orders Google to reveal Gmail user

Google Netherlands has agreed to hand over the IP addresses of a Gmail user in an alleged spy case.

The CEO of Dutch internet incubator company iMerge suspected that a former disgruntled employee, who also acted as a system administrator, had secretly created an auto-forward rule in one of the company’s mail servers. Several mails, including business conversations and a romantic discourse which led to a divorce, were forwarded to a Gmail address.

Because Gmail doesn’t reveal someone’s IP address in outgoing mail headers, iMerge couldn’t take legal action against the former employee.
