Product Integration into Gmail

Take a look into this opportunity: https://gsuite-developers.googleblog.com/2017/03/bring-power-of-your-apps-into-gmail_9.html

I'm curious if it's going to be premoderated and therefore not available to most of products like Actions.

Did You Know Gmail Has Security Warnings For Suspected State-Sponsored Attacks?

If not - take a look here. I wish you to never see this message on you Google Mail account:

We believe state-sponsored attackers may be attempting to compromise your account or computer.

Gmail Now Prominently Marks Emails Sent Without TLS

Now here's a prominent red mark in Gmail for each email sent by sender whose infrastructure doesn't support TLS:

What a smart move to efficiently promote using TLS among senders - as no one wants their emails to have that red mark.

Google Inbox Is Going To Suggest Quick Replies For You

Google is really changing the world, especially email one.

I get a lot of email, and I often peek at it on the go with my phone. But replying to email on mobile is a real pain, even for short replies. What if there were a system that could automatically determine if an email was answerable with a short reply, and compose a few suitable responses that I could edit or send with just a tap? 

They say they will release this feature later this week. It's gonna be fun!

Gmail Has Been Erroneously Assigning Emails to Wrong Gmail Accounts

I've got 2 Gmail accounts I'm logged in at the same browser - a personal one and a work one. So these are 2 different accounts and I have to switch between them in order to see appropriate emails.

But few minutes ago I've mentioned in my work account an email intended to arrive into my personal account!

What does make me think it's a Gmail fault but not something else?
1. Technical headers of the emails show no link with my work account. The headers are saying it was intended and delivered to my personal account.
2. There's no active forwarding or mail fetching rules that might result in this on both personal and work accounts.
3. I'm seeing more that one erroneously delivered email.
4. Those problematic emails are available from different devices.

As a result it makes me think there was a bug in Gmail, and it lasted at least for a few hours.

P.S. I've seen the same failure again on 15/Oct. So probably the problem lasts.

Gmail couldn't verify that this message was sent by

What does it mean to have this marker on emails for a bank? This will have a negative reputation impact and probably decrease customers' trust. The reputation and trust are the key values for banking business, aren't they?

Why did it happen? Probably because they set up a new SMTP server and forgot to update SPF and DKIM configuration appropriately:

Authentication-Results: mx.google.com;       spf=neutral (google.com: <ip> is neither permitted nor denied by best guess record for domain of <from email>) smtp.mailfrom=<from email>

Gmail Postmaster Interface Finally Arrived

Hurrah! The Gmail postmaster interface is finally available!
https://postmaster.google.com/

Obviously it was launched recently as the data is available only for the last few days.

What I do like in the interface:
- DKIM / SPF / DMARC related data
- domain and IP reputation info available
- a lot of smaller data points

The only weak thing is DNS-only confirmation flow for domain. Small or non-IT companies might end up not getting that access or waiting for a few day which isn't ok in case of an email deliverability crisis.

Here goes a screenshot:
