Very shocked why Gmail isn't automatically showing the newest email at top??? why? I never can find content of my client's email, I had to keep rolling down on my phone and still can't find it, it is very hard to do this while on the go with cell phone. It is a bit odd google can have all the innovations but this? thank you for the extension, it is magic!
