The GMail script tries to make a good job of keeping you posted on new emails coming in.

Version features:
- Parses email headers (from/subject/first text lines/date) and notifies about new/unread emails.
- The look of the notification slightly reminds google talk notifications.
- Drag and Drop your files into bubbles to create new drafts with attached files.

    very functional extension.

    here are some things i would improve:
    * make the text clickable and not only the envelope.
    * did you consider wrapping the title of the email and not cutting it when it reaches the edge?
    * it seems like when clicking the envelope changes the location of the bubble, it would be best to use SSB.notification.ensureVisible()

    It seems that you can’t pop out chat windows from Gmail when it in Bubbles :-(

    The chat pop-up Works for me (IE6)…
    Can you be more specific about what does not works and what version of IE are you using?

    This extension uses http:// to connect. Maybe you can change this to https, the secure version. I tried this locally and the Gmail-bubble keeps working like it should.

    smnh - i love this script but i use Google Apps and the email that goes with it. I tried to modify this script so it works with Apps but can’t get it to work. Could you let me know what i need to change to make it work for apps?

    contact me at bcampbell@cbsikc.com if you get a chance.

    Hi billec,
    All you have to do to make gmail extension to work with Google Apps is to change the second line in the script:
    // @url https://mail.google.com/mail/
    to something like this
    // @url https://www.google.com/a/your-domain.com
    Be sure to replace “your-domain.com” with your real domain name.
    You can also use http instead of https if you wish.

    Unfournately the script doesn’t work on my pc. Neither on xp one nor on vista. The notifications don’ show up an the icon ist permanently red.
    I have already tried to deactivate my pop up blocker but that doesn’t solve the problem either.
    I really would love to use this script…
