Going with the recent e-mail issues I have been having – there are several neat things I have learned and picked up along the way while switching from Yahoo! Mail to Gmail. I know there are more people in this same boat so hopefully this will be helpful to all.

Maybe the best (pardon the pun) tool I have found while switching has been the Better Gmail extension for Firefox. It ads a lot of the little customizations that I have been looking to do. My big ones were to hide the invite box, hide the ads, and make Gmail use https:// by default.
