		josefresco on Sept 23, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Why The New Gmail Sucks I have to agree with point #1. I hated the small compose window until I realized I can minimize it, browse/search my Gmail and then return to finish. I can't say I agree with your other points. Sometimes, you need to write a long email and there's no way around it. an email provider should not be trying to re-invent how people use email, they should embrace how people use email and make it better.

When you need to write a long email, you can just press the "full screen" button, or even shift-click to open a new window.

Doesn't seem that problematic to me.

You actually don't have to minimize it, that's why it's on the right hand side. You can copy/paste directly, even dragging text with a mouse.
