What is Trimless for Google Mail™?
Trimless for Google Mail™ is a handy Chrome extension designed to streamline the user experience in Gmail. It automatically expands trimmed parts of emails, eliminates the 'Show trimmed content' buttons often found at the end of well-trimmed messages, and alters the visual style of trimmed text by setting it in a less obtrusive light gray color while also indenting it to the right. This makes your emails easier to read at a glance. Furthermore, not only does it restore any clipped messages, but this extension also allows users to turn its functionality on and off with a simple click on a scissors icon located in the address bar. For more customization, users can modify both the color of the trimmed content as well as the degree of its indentation to suit individual preferences.

Stopped working. Now continously getting the "message clipped" message at the end of many e-mails. Used to work well.
