Automatically shows trimmed content in Google Mail™.

Trimless for Google Mail™ - Effortless Email Content Expansion

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.

As someone who receives a lot of music venue schedule emails that are ALWAYS clipped, I really appreciated this extension and am super disappointed it's no longer supported. Really hope that I'm able to use this again one day!

Removes the annoyance of discovering Google's message clipped notice at the bottom of an email message. Hey Google, put that notice at the top of the email so that the reader knows immediately that the email has been truncated.
