Version 4.2: -Bug fixes, fixed auto add cc/bcc.

Version 4.1: -Bug fixes, Enabled compose tab controller.

By default, Gmail doesn't allow dragging mails outside the opened window, so you'll not be able to download your mails or transfer them as attachment to another browser window or tab, unless you download them manually from mail menu.

Also, you can't drag an attachment from any opened mail and drop it into the compose window as attachment, the same when you need to transfer this attachment to another account opened in another browser window.

By using this extension, you'll be able to drag attachments directly to any opened compose window, you'll notice a download mail button which is draggable to your file system, or to compose window, or even to another browser tab, you'll get another button which will move the attachment section to top.

To make it easy for you to reply or forward mails, this extension adds action buttons and moves the inline compose view to top.

A new tab bar will change the look of Gmail and will allow composing mails in new tabs inside the same window, or add mails as chrome like bookmark tab.

Great extension and responsive developer. It was broken for a few days due to Google updates and is now fixed. Thank you for your continual support of this software, it's very helpful and I use it every day.

An excellent and much-needed extension. Thank you for writing it. If I paste in text, however, it always appears at the end of the message (after quoted text in a reply), not at the point where the cursor is.

Love it! The auto cc: works and all the other features are a time save. Thank you! I appreciate your work.
