GMail cuts threads at 61 emails

August 19th, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments

I thought this was interesting... I don't seldom have emails that are this long, but since every survey submission is seen as part of the same resonse, I've been seeing it. It appears as though every 61 messages, the thread is cut and a new one is started. Has anyone else seen this and possibly experienced a different number? If everyone else is indeed seeing 61, does anyone know why?

Does anyone from Google read this? If so, why cut the threads at 61?

Side Note; Anyone know when Google Apps will be getting the 'Always use SSL' checkbox?

    I have been eagerly awaiting that same tickbox. I understand gmail gets the beta-quality changes, and apps gets the "stable" stuff, but one would think that is a feature that would be rolled out to the apps side pretty quick — especially considering their target.

    Bill Gates: "640k should be more than enough for anybody…"
    Matti Makkonen: "160 characters? that should be enough…"
    Sergey Brin: "61 emails? "

    technology FAIL.
