Got your back, pt. 7

Nice recent addition to Gmail – a little warning if you’re replying to a thread you were BCC’ed on.

Please note that I’m not necessarily endorsing the execution details, as I consider Gmail kind of a clunky operation overall. You can’t swat the message away with a swipe, the wrong quotation mark is used, and I’m perplexed about the location of this message – something tells me it was really cheap to do it this way rather than put it close to the recipient field, to help you understand the relation.

But still, I appreciate something shining at least a bit of light at the complex relations between To, CC, and BCC.
