Get mail from other accounts
Now Google Mail can check for the mail you receive at your other email accounts. You can retrieve your mail (new and old) from up to five other email accounts and have them all in Google Mail. Then you can even create a customised 'From:' address, which lets you send messages from Google Mail, but have them look like they were sent from another one of your email accounts. Please note that you can only retrieve mail from accounts that have POP3 access enabled. Learn more
It is a Google Mail party and everyone is invited!
You can still invite your friends to enjoy Google Mail's spam protection, 2.8 GB free storage and other great features, but now you can also just tell them to visit www.googlemail.com and sign up without an invitation.
It is new and it is fast. To try it for yourself, point your phone to googlemail.com/app
Download it once and start accessing Google Mail on your phone with just a click or two. You will also like it because:

Contact groups One of our most-requested features is finally here! Now you can send messages to a group instead of having to pick out the individual addresses every time. Learn more
View as HTML Now you can view Microsoft Office, OpenOffice or .pdf attachments as web pages by clicking on the "View as HTML" link instead of downloading.

Auto-save
We spent 20 minutes writing this entry and then the browser crashed.
Good thing there is auto-save. It saves. Automatically.
Be yourself
@googlemail.com or @yourschool.edu or @yourcustomdomain.com. Now you can customise the 'From:' address on your outgoing messages to display another one of your addresses instead. Use any alias or email address that you own, but do all your sending from Google Mail. Learn more
Take your friends anywhere
Now you can export your Google Mail Contacts. Save them in a file for use in
another account or service–great if you're using Google Mail's free POP
access. Or just back them up so you never lose another contact again.
